A LBERT CAPELLANI, I'll e
~ French director, has returned
from France. and will begin
work at once on a series of pictures
in which Marjorie Rambeau will be
starred.
Mr.. Capellani declares that while
conditions in France are not very good
they are improving. The picture COM
panies there realize that it is impos-
sible to make pictures without Ameri-
can methods-in fact, American meth
ods are necessary to every other kind
of business as well, he asserts
ITO get satisfactory results French
studios must be equipped as they are
here" he says. Il visited nearly all
the studios while was in France, and
1 found they lacked such important
equipment as electricity. carpenter
shops. properties and men to take
charge of these various departments.
So the director, instead of coming on
the set to direct with a mind free for
his important business, must also write
the scenario, fetch his own furniture
design his own sets and even set the
scene. Now such universally is, OF
course, impossible il one is to arrive
at splendid results.
However good directors may be in

The American market Is closed to
French pictures now but 1 am sure
that when the French pictures are
improved they will be as welcome
here as American Aims.
There is no shortage Of stories in
France such as exists in this country.
For one thing. our literature is as yet
untapped; and also they are coming
to realize that the motion picture in
dustry needs good authors who will
write for its needs alone. These must
be paid well so that men of real talent
may be secured. Stories are like
boots. You must pay we'll for good
