Screen Demands More
Than Stage of Actor,
Says Oliver Mor0sco
By OLIVER MoRosCo.

Which requires more of the actor.
the screen or the stage? With the
growing discrimination between
acting and action. believe that
the searching rays OF the project
ing machine demand finer artistry
than the' glare of the footlights.
The screen actor has more to get
over"
The contemptuous estimate Of
the younger art is softening under
the intelligence being applied to
the screen drama Admitting that
"panning pictures" is still a popu-
lar pastime much in the same fash
ion that the automobile was the
conventional joke. the silent drama
is undeniably making rapid strides.
1T should be-there is room for
improvement" Is an obvious retort-
Granting this, too, the fact remains
that it is.
Pictures, relying so much upon
mechanics. have progressed only as
the science of photography, cleo
trical lighting and physical ar
rangement permitted. Years have
been spent in developing the tools
OF the art. 1t is natural. therefore,
that there should have been a
striving for spectacle and effects"
to the neglect of the drama itself.
But today the pictures are swing
ing back to the STORY" with dra-
matte values given their proper
relations in the progressive pyra-
miding. And to visualize the
drama, a new school of acting and
direction is coming to the screen.
The first idea that there must be
action action. action, is giving way
to the demand for acting, acting
and still better acting. We see a
new subtlety- instead of obvious
pantomime. More confidence is re-
posed In the audiences mentality
because the picture makers them
selves have more confidence in
their own ability to portray instead
of diagram.
Good picture quality stories are
the keenest need of the screen.
The so-called screen literature"
may not have kept pace with the
development OF the mechanical and
acting branches. 1 believe that the
expansion of stage plays of the
right sort come the nearest to the
solution at present. This has been
proved by the notable successes
based upon adaptations and the re-
markably high prices that have
been paid for picture rights to
footlight classics.
But this does not mean that the
screen must follow the stage. A
proof of this is that "Slippy Nc
Gee" which we have been filming
in the natural settings at Natchez,
Miss, may reach the East before
the stage play, which has been
seen only on the Coast 50 far.

Jack Hoxie is a genuine cowboy
who has risen to the rank of a
movie star. He was born twenty
nine years ago near Guthrie, Okla,

a number of championships for
trick and fancy riding and the
worlds. championship for bull
dogging a steer in ten seconds.
The publicity he received from
the bull-dogging performance at
tracted the attention of Buffalo
Bill, who engaged him as rider for
his Wild West Show. There he
remained one season. 1t was while
with the show that Hoxie was
signed for motion pictures by Ben
Wilson and the Arrow Film Cor
poration, for whom he has made
