IN THE TWINS DOUBLE
ARE SEEN QUEER FEATS
OF CLWEMATOGRAPHY
Universals Star, King BaggOt Exhumed From Living
Grave.-Warren Kerrigan Assumes the Unusual
Role of a Brutal Bully

A remarkable picture as regards cine
matography is in course Of production
at the Pacific Coast Studios of the Uni
versaI at Hollywood, Cal 1t is en-
titled, 1.-The Twins Double" and is in
three reels. Francis Ford is the direc-
tor, and the scenario was written by
Grace Cunard, Mr.. FOrd's leading
woman.
The novel feature of this film is that
Miss Cunard impersonates three people,
twins and their double, and that in
one scene all three people are on the
screen at the same time. This Is ac-
complished by means of a difficult triple
exposure. 1t is especially difficult in
that all three women talk to each other
simultaneously.
The story has to do with q female
crook, who, after her trial. is acquitted,
although the detective who has collected
the evidence against her is certain of
her guilt In an Opium-smoking den,
the female crook meets her exact double.
The double is respectable only that she
has the opium habit. The double is

Director Joseph Macdonald of the
Universal is featuring J. Warren Ker-
rigan in an adoption of Balzac's great

So
Among the dominant figures of film
dom Arthur Y. johnson unquestiOnably
holds a high place. As a director, no
less than an actor, he stamps the i'm
press of his art upon every phot0play
he produces for the Luhin Company. 1t
has been said that he can handle a del
icate situation on the screen with sur
passing skill and in the next instant can
ATTACK a situation with almost terrify-
ing strength and passion. II is this
ability to sound the depths which makes
itself felt in everything which he at
tempts. There is an ver-presCnt viril-
ity and certainty of expression in a
johnson photoplay.
At present Mr.. johnson is reaping the
benefits of fourteen years stage ex-
perience. During that period his work
embraced almost everything in Shakes
peare and the classics while member
of the companies of Marie Wainwright
and Robert B. Mantell, with appear
ances between times in modern plays.
His phOtOplay admirers can easily see
him in their minds eye as Sherlock
Holmes. Undoubtedly it is Mr. John
sons familiarity with the standard
drama which discloses itself in that
sound technique which at present he
employs so Enthusiastically. but it is his
sympathy and insight into character
roles which make his artistic standing
what it is. This he attributes to his
association with the late Sol Smith Rus
sell. He thoroughly enjoys playing such
iparts as 'The School PRINCIPAL" ''Friend
John" and his old success in 1.-THE Pro

in a character which is new to him

Donald The brute is the foreman of an
oil field, the owner of which dies and
leaves the property to his daughter.
Coming to look over her property, she is
thrown in contact with the brute. Al
though he is taken with her, he sees that
he is treated with cold disdain. Down
deep in her heart she admires the prim-
tive, fOrceful elements of the foreman's
character. The story deals with the
smoothing out and developing of the

there is the suggestion of love to come.

use Of an accurately tuned wireless

This idea is in itself not a new
one, as we are already familiar with

the originality lies in the close tun-
