Sideights on Current and Coming Attractions

Producers of motion pictures have
learned that they must be accurate
in every detail, for nothing seems
to escape the alert eye of the con-
firmed film fan" Little inconsis-
tencies in detail which formerly CROP
ped out frequently such as a scene
during the civil war period in which
the eye of the camera has chanc-
ed to catch a late model OLIVIER
in the Background, are glaring and
have been pretty well eliminated. But
there are countless other details that
need attention and, realizing this, the
Norma Talmadge studios now boast
a department of research which is in
charge of Elsa Lopez, for the last
three years associated with D. w.
Griffith.
| Miss Talmadge believes that at
/ present, producers do not, as a gen.
eral rule, lay enough stress on ac-
curacy and artistic nicely. In the
four to six weeks which constitute
the average length of time allotted
to the making of a picture, the direc-
tor has about all he can do to con-
centrate on the story and guide the
players in the Interpretation of their
parts. 1t would be an enormous help
to him to have some one always at
call who could spend hours at the
! library looking up the correct cos
tunes for 1873, the particular cere-
monies of a particular Indian tribes
war dance, the type of minuet dances
at the court of Louis XIV; some one
who could bring him a drawing of a
Russian interior, and always Know
authoritatively about costumes, fur
l,,ff AnrrA - n
of foreign countries, and all the hun
dred or more things which are too
| frequently slurred over in an other
wise carefully produced picture in
the hope that the public won't notice
| it.
So Miss Talmadge is now sure that
her pictures will be correct in eyery
detail, and fans" will have the on
portunity for judging for themselves
her newest picture-the first made
with the help of the new department.
THE Probation Wife" to be shown
at Crandalps Metropolitan this week.
In Mary Pickford's "reminiscences
recently published, the popular screen
star tells of her strange meeting with
the Dolly Sisters about two years ago
| in New York. The Dolly Sisters, Ros.
zika and Yansci, are the musical com
edy and dancing stars so often re
ferred to as the "Delectable Dollies. ~

According to Miss Pickford, she had
long been desirous of meeting the Dol

clared she positively did not see her.
What was Miss Pickford's surprise 4
few days later to be cut again by
Miss Dolly when she passed her on
the street. This time Miss Pickford
decided never to speak to Miss Dolly
again. But shortly afterwards Mary
attended a theater where the Dolly
Sisters were appearing. and she in
stantly realized that she had only
met one half Of the Dolly twinship.
and that the one who had failed to
recognize her was Yansci Dolly, the
twin sister and living image of Ros-
zika
Since then Miss Pickford and both
Dollys have become great friends.
Jessie Howard, who Is with THE
Girl in Stateroom B" at the Shu-
bert -Garrick Theater this week,
had the unusual experience of be-
ing engaged for a production the
first time she stepped into a man
ayers office.
Coming to New York from a small
town in the Middle West. Miss
Howard was prepared to undergo
the trials and tribulations that are
the fate of most newcomers to the
stage. So. after engaging accom-
modations for herself, and paying
a months rent in advance-to tide
against the expected disappoint-
ments-she boldly started out with
a list of the producers tightly held
in one hand and the balance Of
her meager savings in the other.
Hardly had Miss Howard entered

placed before her, with figure that
to her seemed enormous-but which
to brag about.

parting instructions. And in spite
of the months room rent in ad-
vance, which the hard-hearted land
lady declined to return, Miss How
ard went to Boston, jumped into
the small part assigned to her, and
it was not long before she became
recognized as one of Broadway

Mary Thurman, the famous beauty
Of Mack Sennett's beside-the-sea COM
edies, has gone in for the straight
drama.
II has only been a short time since
the film world was stirred by the
tales Of Mary Thurman's remarkable
beauty. She is a remarkable beau
ty, but the films mostly knew her
for her comedy work with Mack Sem
nett and not as a character come
dienne.
Mary, in fact. had a statuesque
figure Of the kind that seldom leaves
Broadway. However, Mary decided
that slap-stick comedy was not the
place for her talents and she jumped
into straight dramatics.
Mary has gone. not only into the
drama, but into character drama. In
Poor Boob the film story in which
Bryant washburn is being starred
at Loew's Columbia Theater this
