Stories Do Not Suffer
From Changes Made
In Film Production

The plots of fiction stories often are
made stronger, built up to more pleas
ing climaxes, when produced on the
screen than in their original book form
according to George Barr McCutcheon
whose novel, sherry" is now being
distributed by the Pathe Company.
Answering questions recently con
cerning how authors felt about seeing
their plots literally turned upside
down, in some instances, by screen pro,
ducers, Mr.. McCutchcon admitted that
in many cases the books would not be
recognized on the screen by their own
writer's, but added that in some cases
the film producers made better works OF
them.
~ am sure" said Mr.. McCutcheon
after seeing Sherry" that many au-
thors are shocked extremely when they
have allowed their works to be screened
and then see the finished product
Liberties have been taken with the plot
and subtitles used do not seem as good
to them as bits of text from their
book
They do not realize that a director
knows his business and knows what the
public demands Of good picture
Sometimes they see a character whom
they have pictured as a likable chap
turned into the villain of the story
Of course it is a shock, but if they
would give little thought to it thcy
would discover that it was about the
only thing the director could do to give
necessary punches to the story
Il think l have experienced as many
| surprises as any writer whose works
! have been ADAPTED for the screen
When viewing Sherry I tried to i'm
agIne myself an interested spectator
who merely dropped in to enjoy the
picture. found it very difficult thing
to do. There were places where the plot
had been changed and characters devel-
oped differently than l had intended :;
but, after thinking it over, decided
that it was the only thing to be done.
While it is disappointing to certain
degree to see ones plot changed, can
see it is absolutely necessary to give
conference to the picture.
I'm book we have several hundred
pages at our disposal to do what we
will with our plot and characters
On the screen the director must take
our plot and condense it into five, six
or seven reels and make it interesting
enough to hold the spectator for an
hours time. | can readily sec why
such liberties are taken
Il have heard many writer's say, 4
would not mind having my novels
used for screen purposes if the story
would be improved That is quite
natural, and some Of them are i'm
proved. 1t depends wholly on the type
of the book
"'Sherry' has become one of my ia
vorites, and, for one thing, was de-
lighted with the way the title part
was handled by Pat O'Malley. He
seemed to grasp it with shrewd un-
derstandlng and get all the subtle
whimsles of the character into the
role and at the Same time not lose
the dramatic possibilities.
1T is tri1e hard on writers to see
our work tampered with but when it
is done artistically we should not com
plain. AS said before, much latitude
must be allowed IN screening novels
to bring out the different Incidents in
fast sequence to hold the interest of
the spectator"
