Fillmore q "Find"
When He Appeared

The history of the American
stage chronicles countless instances
where stars have been made over
night and the critics on more than
one occasion have discovered" as
a new find" some actor or actress
who has been playing numerous
parts covering a period of years. yet
who. through circumstances, had
not appeared on Broadway
Hence there was a great search
for laudatory adjectives one night
last winter when a play called The
Innocent Idea" was shown to
Broadway. The play itself was not
SO good and its advertised star
caused no excitement in the ranks
OF the reviewers. but a young juve-
nile man in farce comedy role.
hitherto unknown. somewhere dur
ing the action OF the play had
stamped himself as one Of the most
natural and effective comedians
ever seen on Broadway.
Hurried elances at programs
showed the name TO be a strange
one. So the next morning the critics
labelling him a new Willie Collier,
discovered Russell Fillmore who
plays the leading role in Here
after" Monta Bells production OF
John Balderston's morality play at
B. F. Keith's this week.
The critics did not have the time
70 discover that back Of his sensa-
tional Broadway debut Russell
Fillmore had the foundation of ten
years Of stock training under the
greatest directors in America, and
was therefore ready when the big
chance came. In the Hereafter
ulaylet Mr.. Fillmore has one of the
most effective male roles ever
written. covering as il does almost
every phase of acting from farce to

That Is Mr. DeMille's summary OF
the literary end of the motion pic.

nearly two-score photoplays in the
many years of his association with
the screen and he Is well qualified
to speak on this Important phase
OF motion picture production.
