George Melford. In producing for
Paramount Behold My Wife" his
latest picture. based on Sir Gilbert
Parker's widely read novel. The
Translation OF a Savage" has shat
tered all preecedents by filming the
picture almost In it's natural Sc
quence-that is. by beginning with
the first scenes and finishing with
the last approximately m the order
In which they appear In the contin-
uity.
For reasons which have been many
times explained, director rarely
ever films the picture with any de-
gree Of sequence. but more generally
will begin perhaps In the middle OF
the story, or perhaR in the latter
part OF the story. and IL Is not at all
an uncommon procedure. on the part
OF the director TO photograph the
very last scenes In the picture first.
and TO film the first few scenes In
the picture during the last few pho
tographing days.
"The work OF filming THE Transla-
tion Of a Savage" required this spe-
cial procedure" says Mr.. Melford
because In this picture lies the
unique development OF a character
which Is. In a measure. unlike any
thing yet shown upon the screen.
The picture, like the novel. de-
picts the translation or transition ex-
perienced by girl from n state OF
savagery. she being an Indian maiden
in the wilds OF the great Canadian
Northwest, to a state of the most ad-
vanccd enlightenment In modern
civilization.
