CLOSE-UPS of the MOVIE GAME
By HENRY
They All Work Together in a Big German Picture
DOWN In a little out-of-the-way town In Long Island the other night I had
a chnnce to see a precntutIon o the latest nnd most ambitious uioWng
picture effort of Iniet I.ubitsch, the grcnt German director'" who produced
"Passion," "Deception" nnd "Gypsy Blood." It was shown In n town that
nobody ever heard of and will not again be seen until later in the winter, when
it,ls released throughout the country.
You may wonder why this performance was given In this hamlet so far
rtmovctl from the bright lights of the big cities. I have no authoritative iufor
nation on that point, but I can tell jou i-omethlng that may have had some
b taring on it.
New York, you know, recently installed a Hoard of Censors. They have
tnc same powers that our censors have, but, of eourc, no law enn be retro
active, which is a slang term meaning having a kick-back, so the censors can
not interfere with any picture which has been shown publicly before the date
When they took otlicc.
! A lot of new pictures were shown in various tall grass burgs around New
5ork the week before the censors were imuigurnted. Tar be It from me to hint
int anybody was trying to get around anything, but facts is facts, and there
ybu arc.
This new German film interested me more than any other that has been
brought here. 1 do not mean to refer now to its merits; only my highbrow
fi iend, the crltli', Is permitted to talk about that sort of tiling.
sllut this one it's culled "One Arabian Night" was an excellent example
o: the way tlio-e foreigners sink their own personalities nnd their own reputa
tions In order to creute the best ensomb'e possible.
Toll Negri is the stnr and opposite her is Harry T.iedtke, who played with
her In "I'a-xlon." Those two would be sufficiently strong to carrj almost any
picture, but In this the producer goes cen farther.
i
I I KITSCH himself acts an important part in the play. And the
only director who can compare with Lubitsch in Europe, Paul
cgcncr. takes n minor role. If you can imagine 1). 11". Griffith direct
ing and acting, and Cecil dc Mille or Marshall Xcilan acting minor parts
and being assistant director in the tame pictuic, you would hare an
American coiintapart of this situation. Hut it isn't done over here.
' A FEW days later I met a man who had just come back from abroad and who ,
had plu'ril around the I.ubitch studio n great deal. lie told me n number
o things that wer,- surprising and I think the mo.t surprising of all was his
R' fltpmi'llt tlirlt flu (tcrmnn lmnnli. pnmmf utiilnret'itnl tin, ?n.ftn-. ... !...!....,!..
fir Tola Ncri.
They iTm-idcr Negri only a fair third-rate film actress. Their ideal of a
genuine star is Ilenny I'ortcti. who played Anm- lloljii in "Deception." Well;
nlebbe, mebbe. All m own German blood comes from C'ountv ('lute nml tlmtV
p-obably whj I can't s,-( it.
This man ajs that I.ublt.scli himself is s0 bashful nnd retiring that it is
a most painful at times to .ri him directing n tlithoilt roup, lie hates to
npeak roughly to an one; lie dislikes hearing his own oice raised so loudly us
to make him conspicuous.
, If on had -er seen a man trjing to yell some brains into a mob of a
thousand dumb-bells, jou would understand how much chance an inconspicuous
director has to make a picture.
I Hut Lubitseh ..inply won't tin it. So he always has an assistant director

on uuu so lonu.

IT DOESX'T seem likely that tec will get more of these German films.
We're culled their maikrt pretty thoroughly and found most of the
Stuff absolutely unsuitid to American audience. Those that we've had
were well worth iceuui and it was just this co-operation among their
Hg film people which made them possible. Hut the tank and file aic

icay of saying they're mostly bunk.

GERMAN FILM INTRODUCES

1 QJOME time during this winter we
's-'will see nnother of the big Geimnn
films featuring some of the Teutonic
stars who have alreadv become familiar
to us. The rcmaikable thing about the
cast of "One Arabian Night" is that
famous people take minor parts and
think nothing of it.
Pola Negri, star of "Passion" nnd
"Gypsy Blood," is the star of this pic
ture. To the left, she Is seen sitting
while Ernst I.ubitsch himself plays the
part of the old man. nml the handsome
iieio Is played 1 Hurry I.iedtke. who
plajed with Negri in "Passion." I.u
bitsch. jou will remember, directed the
other Negri pictures as well ns "Decep
tion, ' but this will be the lirst time
ou have seen him on the screen
The circle shows Negri with another
celebrity Paul Wegener, who is
almost as famous us a director as is
I.ubitsch. but who plnjs a compara
tively minor part In this production.
The other picture shows vthe han
dling of one of the great mob scenes. It
lepiesents a street in Bagdad with the
crowd cheering the arrival of the itin
erant jugglers.

Hollywood. Calif.
THURSDAY night, nt the Hollywood
Hotel's weekly dance, we were
bumped by some of tho best people.
Prlscllln Dean, just back from loca
tion in British Columbia, was t.iero.
Margery Daw's pietty feet tripped the
light fantastic with Dana Todd, pio
tege of Madame Glyn, who aNo never
missed a dance. Penrhyn Stanlnws
looked rather lonely, and I wiw him
tlancing only once, and then with Mrs.
William De Mille. Marguerite do la
Motte and her fiance, Mitchell I.clsen,
appeared to be the best of fi lends, in
spite of her published dculul of their
engagement.
They tell me something amusing nbout
Mrs. Glyn. W.ien sm came to our
Cnited StiyTrs it appears she admired
exeessivclj the life-warming jazz dance
as executed on the local lloors. So she
bought her a.phonogiaph nnd commis
sioned "Blenkie," her faithful secie
tary, to assist her to learn. After tak
ing lessons from the joungblnods down
stairs in the lobby of the Hollywood,
she and Blenkie would repair to the
Glyn siyMum and put theory into prac
tice. Not onlv 'way into the wee una'
hours would they step to the tune of
"Japanese Sandman." but all day, too.
Three times Mrs. Glyn wns forced to
move the tjpewriter, und might linve
been asked to move a fouith by a dip
lomatic, clerkly voicing of the protests
of neighbors unawed by majesty, but
for the fact that she hud miistcietl the
difficult art of jnz. and could perform
consummately in public what she hail
perfected in private.
Helen Feiguson is to bo leading
woman in William De Mille's next pic

with the early days In the old Flno
Arts studio in California, ichen CoU
leen Moore, the- Oish girls, Jlcsslo
Lovt and a host of others ic ere not
much more than extra girlt, Diana
Chcyne retates the tale: she begins
with the day in the studio when the
and Isabel Heath, not stars then as
they are now, iccro sitting on the
stairs when a strange man came xnto
the studio and looked at them. The
cameraman called them down to
meet him, and it proved the turn
ing point in Isabel's life. He was
Phil Crancy, a famous director from
the eastern studios, and he taught
Isabel to be the first of the screen's
"baby vamps," and engaged her for
such a part in a photoplay he was
producing.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER Mil
I
WISHED that something almost
anything would happen to me ns I
hurried along home, xvlth the picture of
Isabel Heath nnd Derry Winchester
back there on her vlno-scrcened porch,
In the back of my mind. I wished that
somebody would suddenly send for mo
and make mo a star, or cast mo oppo
site a wonderful leading man, or most
anything. Any girl who has seen an
other girl walk off with the man she
likes best will know how I felt.
U It didn't mnko me feel any better the
next day to learn that, in tho picture I
wns to begin work on that afternoon,
I wns to play an awfully poor girl and
wear a ragged, dirty dress that the
wardrobe woman had bought at a rum
mage sale held by tlm Salvation Army,
and then rubbed In the mud to make it
look xvorsc. Anil I was to work with a
director whom I didn't know nnd was
afraid of. One of the girls had finished
it picture with him not long before that
nnd sho said she went home and cried
every night because he scolded her so.
"Ho just jells and yells at you if
you don't got a thing right the first
time," she had told me. "Mary Pick
ford herself couldn't suit that man."
I got Into my awful dress and smeared
my make-up on most any waj- I dis
tinctly remember that my mouth was
lopsided nnd went down to tho door,
At first I didn't sea any of the people
I was going to xvork with, and then
I noticed Teddy Sampson, nnd went
over to where she was. And two min
utes nfter 1 got there Isabel and Derry
sauntered up. I could have gone
straight through the nearest knothole.
Isabel looked marvelous in a new
silk sweater and 11 dress thnt wns all
hemstitched ruffles. Derry looked stun
ning, too Teddy Sampson began mak
ing fun of both of them und their grand
clothes, but I just felt more miserable
than ever. And then Bums, my di
rector, called to me. I was going to
begin work with him before I knew his
wiij-s at all, in front of Derry and
Isabel.
We ran through a scene or two, re
hearsing, while the nssistant tlircctor
took some chalk and marked on the
tloor the lines indicating how much of
the set would be 'caught by the camera
you have to stay inside these lines,
you see. It seemed to me thnt I was
horribly dumb ; certainly I was very
conscious of Derry and Isabel and of
two men who btood near them, talking
anil xvntchlng us.
When Burns finally said: "Well,
you're nil rotten, but I don't suppose
auj thing can be done to improve jou
Camera!" I wished I could 11111 out of
that studio nnd never come back. 1
knew that I looked awful; my hair,
which I'd had to dampen to make it
look btringy. was hanging down mj
back, and Burns had made a dirtv
smear acioss one of my cheeks so that
I'd 1 colly look as If I belonged in the
hovel where I was supposed to live.
Luckily for me, in most of tho scene
I had to act perfectly miserable, just the
way I felt. And nt tiie end, where I
nan to uaro up nntl defy the Sheriff,
(Im li n 1 --A. a .! ..... il' 1
who had come to take my mother nnd
me to tho poorhoiibe, all the anger I'd

"Derry" I spoko ns the thought

you i come over tonight, and we'll ro
to Norma's new picture. I have some
passes." (Derry nl ways took me to
Norma s pictures.)
"Why, I j ou see, Dl, I've promised

"Oh, nil right don't bother." I
turned around and dashed off behind th

to him. "Derry, come here!" Ami

snaky cords that formed a network on
the floor nnd led to tho lights helping
Is, who had made her way over those
cords alone more times thnn he had!
I xvns still standing there, swalkmlni
hard, when Colleen Moore came along
"MIldrcd'H going to Triangle. Dl,'"
she began. A few days before some of
us hod gone to tho Triangle studio, to
try for engagements, and neither Col

"Oh, Colleen, comedies!" I pro

of her dramatic ability, because the day
she came for her screen test, when they
told her to cry, she wept buckets of
tears as easy as anything, without using
nn onion or nny other first aid nnd
now I couldn't think of her in come
dies. "Wel'i they teach you to work fast,
and they ro good experience; and I
think mnvbe I'll try 'em n little Inter.
Better think it over," she ndvlsed.

I heard that Isabel lind departed sud
denly for the East with the Cranevs
nnd Mr. .Mnrkham and Derry and Billy
Shaxnc, I went right straight to our
studio ond asked to he leleased as soon
as the picture I was working on was
done. Then I went out nnd got an
engagement in ranking comedies. I felt
thnt I couldn't stand it to spend nny
mnro time in thnt studio where Derry
inchester nnd I had so often played,
worked together, or practiced new dance
steps in n vacant set whilo we waited
for our director to call us.
