Is the Titleless Picture Really Worth Working For?
MOST of joii liao seen Hiiro ltnllin'w beautiful jiroiluetiou, "Tlio Journey's

Hut, In the iiintum-pii'turp Industry, die thing tluit lint mnde "The .Tour

Then, when the harbor of New York appears, joti feel that jou have pen -toiinlly

l'or ninny jonrs people in the business hiue been talking of the picture
without titles as the ideal pliture. Hut ! it icn.ll? Is there any good renson
whj we shouldn't linu tltlnx? In't It rather that the problems prevented in
making a picture without titles nre s0 interesting that their successful solution
is nn evidence of tlie cleverness of the producers''
('A'T imaanie the Ihni'i icing letter done than it has hecn by fulfill
in "7'ftt Journeys Kml." And yet. ci-tn here, there irerc several
places iciric I ury much missed o spoken title or tiro. The screen

Willi's the Hallins ictiirtied from Hermuda a short time ago, I nsked Mrs
Hnllin if she wouldn't write for the readers of this page her frank opinion
of the titleless picture and whether she considered it really worth the extra
effort it demands Her cr Inteiesting letter cninc last week. She sa!
"If my unimportant opinions nre of any iuteiest to jour readers, I glmllj
ubniit them herewith.
"To mj way of thinking, there are few -loues that lend thetnsehes ti
the making of the titleless picture IMuvn. mng.mne stories, modern books nnd
classics should be told with the aid of sub-titles, because persons familiar with
the stories feel that the lose their llnor without the spoken word
"Then. too. the persons arriving iate can generally catch up with the
stor bv sitting through the end and then the beginning
"Tlie sub-titles make the cutter's job a less difficult one in the matching
up of jumps, time lapses nnd indifferent acting and many technical difficulties
Tlie continuity writer finds that sub-titles make his work much easier To
tell the storj without sub-titles and make it tindersood Is u feat not easily
accomplished.
"M reasons for belieing that the ideal picture should be without sub-titles
nre that ecntuiill persons would leulize the importance of seeing n picture
from the beginning, which eliminutes curlier patrons of the theatre fiom being
nnnojed by others constantly leaviiig or enteiiiig during the running of the pic
ture, being disturbed by the ncnr-iilitcrntes in tlie adjoining seats leading the
sub-titles aloud with generally the wrong emphasis on the lines.
"The picture without sun-titles necessitates clean-cut actrfig, planting
definitely the emotion intended. This docs not menu exaggerated action as.
for instance, the old European idea of antomline, but sinceic heartfelt effort,

ON THE speaking stage, m tors and

In motion pictures, the pint Is read

Before the company begins to make
even the firit scene in a photoplay,
the scenaiio w liter mid dlnctor call
a meeting and rehearse the company,
rending the scenario and explaining the
meaning of each scene If the; author
and ditector are wise, the stor is then
euicfully rehearsed clear through, tcnr

quence of their scenes nnd the relation
of their parts to other ports and to

A sc teen actor or actress j., in a
more difficult position sn far nh t ho

the plaicrs of the spoken diuiiia. In

Contiury to common belief, the ac
tors renllv speak the wouls of tfielr
lines. There was u ()uy when tho
hero, kissing the hemine in the final
ilose-up. might say something like
"Let's go out and get a cheese sand
wich, now thut this is over,"
But just about this time, large num

CONFESSIONS
OF AsSTAR
As Told to
INEZ KLUMPH
CHAPTER VI
ISABEL'S last fib seemed to bo too
much for tho reporter, for ho left
after that, and tho and I sat down and
talked everything over again. But we
couldn't reach any decision, and were
still going round and round in con
versational circles when Derr Win
chester came for me.
"I'm suro that Dcrry will know what
to do," I told Isabel as I ran to let
him in. "Let's .leuvo it .to him."
Sie said something about being able
to manage her own affairs In future
without letting any man take n hand in
them, but when Dcrry enmc In she
seemed nil too willing to curl up on the
davenport beside him and fairly hang
on his words.
"Of course, Crancy's n cad," he
lold us. "Most of thp men around the
studio have known that right nlong. He
hasn't iad any real connection with the
company; he's just been making this
picture on speculation.
"I Imagine that this thing will blow
over by Itself if you give it time. I
saw- Cranoy with his wdfe this evening
going into the Alexandria, nnd they've
probably made it nil up by now. I'm
told that he can always get around her
nfter n fuss of this kind. Ho used to
be n regulnr limn nctor, you know
called himself tlie great, Jover of the
stngo, though lie newer s'aw Broadway
professionally. But they sny he has nil
the little tricks down pnt."
I stole n look at Isabel then, but she
was gazing into Derry's fnee, wide
eyed nnd innocent as could be. I felt
rather uncomfortable, somehow. In n
few moments I felt even more so, for
Isnbel proposed n plan that I couldn't
feel quite right about, no matter how
hard I tried.
"I should tlilnk It would be a good
idea If I went nroiind a lot with some
body else." she said. "Then nobody
would think I'd been crazy over Mr.
Crnncy ; they'd think what I said about
wishing he'd nsked me to go Inst night
was just silly nonsense. I could even
explain to one of the papers that I'd
Hiought he was n grent director nnd felt
thnt if lio'd taken me outwdth him I'd
have learned n great deal. How do you
think that would do. Derry? You might
take me around a good deal, just for n
littlp while, nnd then maybe people
would forget this horrid thing about
me."
I just sat there open-mouthed. I
felt horribly excited inside, ns If some
one hnd been opening and shutting nn
umbrella very fast where my heart was
supposed to be. JSI10 was cooing so
sweetly at Derry my Derry !
"Well, that might turn the trick."
ho answered slowly, but he looked at
me for 11 moment before he went on. I
turned nwny. If he was ns rriuy ns
that to run around with Isnbel he could
do it. I told myself. I felt nngry at
her. nnd at him. nnd nt myself too.
So we went to the movies tnnt eve
ning, nil three of us; it wns Isabel's
idea to stnrt right away to throw peo
ple 'nlT the track. And he nnd she took
me home and then went on to her
house.
Thnt wns the beginning of a per
fectly ghastly time for me. I told my
self thnt 1 couldn't be ienlous because
I didn't renlly enre for Dcrry Winches
ter but Id go nml see pictures In
which he'd had n small part time aud
time agoin.
He kept asking me to go places with
him nnd Is, but I wouldn't do it I
told him it would spoil the phut if I
tagged nlong. It would linve, too. But
nfter n while lie stopped asking me,
and then I was furious at him.
His rescuing me when wo were out
on location, instead of tlie hero's doing
it, had intlier upset the picture we
were making there, but the director de
cided that it would be a good lesson
for Richard Yale to let Dcrry keep
Unit scene, nnd changed the story so
that wo could keep the rescue just as It
was. Yale was furious, of com so. nnd
said he'd break his contract. He hnd
done very well n few years before in
tlie rending role in n big, spectacular
production, and since then of course
he'd had a gicat following, but lie had
begun drinking so heavily that he was
just going down and down. You haiillv
ever hear of him nowadays ; he's made
several attempts to come back, but he
can't seem to do it. At that time lie
