he appears on the screen wearing ludi-
crOus costumes it is just as if he wore
on his shirt front a placard reading,
I'm funny. Watch me- If he fails to
live up TO his Clothes the Lord help
him! He must get laugh with every
gesture, must back up those clothes
or he goes fiat and the audience be-
gins to ask, who is this guy trying
to act funny, anyway? He's painful
For that reason ! don't like to rely on
funny make-ups. I'd. rather have an
actor who can be funny in dress suit.
'Several actors have made great
regulations as comedians simply be-
cause they were unusual specimens Of
humanity, because they were remark
ably fat or remarkably tall, because
they had some very pronounced pecul-
iarfty of features or because of great
ability as facial cOntertionists. These
men are born and cannot be made.
MANY of our future star comedians
of the silent drama will be recruited
from the Europeans, / believe. Con-
tinentals are by nature very expressive.
They talk with their arms, eyes and
whole faces. This is true especially of
the members of the volatile Latin
races, who cannot mention a spade
without making a gesture as if they
were about to dig a hole, cannot keen
the sparkle out of their eyes when they
tell joke.
1.-THE screen has many advantages
over the STAGE" said Mr.. Sennett, his
active mind skipping to another phase
| of the many-sided subject he loves to
discuss from any angle. "For one
thing. on a ten by fifteen foot moving
picture screen it is possible for ev-
cry person in the theater to see the
! expression of an actors face more
clearly than it can be seen by those
sitting in the back of a regular play
house.
I'm closeup picture you can show
all the minutest details, the culver of
an actors eyelash or the faintest curl
of his lip. Look at this picture of Ray
mond Hitchcock and the dancer for
example. In the film closeup pic
| ture of Mr.. Hitchcock's face is shown.
lie turns slowly toward the audience
and winks! It brought roar of laugh
ter everywhere the film was shown.
Just a wink! But every movie fan
in the house could see his eyelash
move and catch the expression in his
eye as clearly as if Mr.. Hitchcock was
sitting in a chair beside him. You
could not get that effect to the gallery
gods, Or even to the people in the back
orchestra chairs, if Hitchcock himself
was on the stage of a regular
theater.
"a little while ago l saw a novel ex-
pertinent in the way of moving pic
lures. Just at one Of the funniest eli
makes in good comedy the manage
ment had the operator stop his ma
chine, the lights were flashed I'D. and
The review. [volume] (High Point, N.C.) 1908-19??, 1917-01-18

there on the stage we're the very actors
who had made the picture continuing
in person the action that was being
shown on the screen. Surprise is. one
of the most essential elements of COM
edy, but it fell fiat. Why?.. Because in
the closeup full faces that were being
shown on the screen the audience
could see clearly the subtle shades
of facial expression that were getting
the laugh, while on the stage in per-
son their faces were merely white
blur to all but those in the front
seats.
"Another advantage of the movies
over the stage for comedy purposes IS
tNat the picture-maker does not have
to resort to artificial or mechanical
tricks To be funny. a scene must
be natural, the actor must seem re-
Taxed and unconscious of his audience.
If the movie director wants to show
an absent-minded butterfly hunter
walking into a waterfall, he shows
real waterfall with a real sylvan back
ground. He doesn't have to use q
painted drop and a stream of water
that flows evenly from a pipe. He
uses no props. no matter how many
different scenes he may want to show
in a single comedy"
Mr.. Sennett believes enthusiastically
in the movies "There must be some
thing wonderful" he says, "about the
business that can develop in half
generation into the third largest indus
try in the country" And this man who
has genius for packing five laughs
| into a situation where only one laugh
grew before feels that making people
happy, besides being a lucrative Occu
patton, is a serious mission.
1--WE keep our fingers on the pulse
| of the world" he told the writer So
berly. 'Only the other day l received
report from one of my agents in
| Paris He wrote me that when the
wounded soldiers come back the first
thing they ask is, Where can we get
laugh; where can we see a funny
play; where can we see a funny NOV
| ing picture? I myself have received
| letters from towns behind the battle
lines of Europe, expressing gratitude
for a laugh of which I was the father,
and I tell you they have made my
heart expand.
'PeOple sometimes ask me what
screen comedians are like outside the
studio, whether sthere's any truth in
the myth that those whose business it
is to make others laugh are usually
gloomy individuals themselves. AS far
as I've observed, film comedians are
like other people, only perhaps the
large salaries they receive make 1t
easy for them to laugh in and out Of
| the studio"
And with triply hearty laugh the
observation-disclosures Macklyn
Sennett bounded out of his chair to
plunge theoretically into the rehearsal
of scene that will soon make millions
laugh ~

Here's a Tip About Hotel Guests.

Here's a Tip About Hotel Guests.
In the American Magazine a writer
says:
Here's a funny thing, by the way
that I've noticed about hotel guests
You have a sOiled towel in a room
and the guest will probably complain
But you can leave a bucket Of paint
and a paperhanger's scaffold in the
hallway, and compel the guest tC
crawl under a stepladder to get to his
room, and he will put up with il
cheerfully-because he knows you
are painting OF papering by way OF
making an improvement, and he is il
sympathy with that. It doesn't cos
much to make over a carpet so tina
a bare spot in front of the dresser
will be eliminated, but such little de
tails are a vast help in making {
hotel prosper"
