and as far as l am concerned such sto,
ries do not interest me one bit. Too
much sex. but there is one point of the
argument which cannot be overlooked by
those who desire honest criticism-from
n technical standpoint, Foolish Wives
is as near perfect as a movie can be.
Now let us study these elements Of
technical perfection in Won Stroheim's
madhouse of a movie. Let us be will
ing to apply the same dramatic and
technical rules which stage plays invite
to photopiayE. Criticism Of stage plays
is not based 1on ones mere personal
likes and dislik, I. II criticism was only
that, wouldn't taste my time with 1t.

He didn't rely upon scenery, but actually

and you Will discover that the principal
members Of the cast are easily foremost
In the picture although several hundred
people are present. In other words. the
director has never allowed interest to be
lost in the five principal characters of
the story.
Another proof Of Won Stroheim's tech

real rain. The truth is, 1t was nearly

TO the pigeon shoot. It's real, and one
gets the idea that real society folk are

to the fire scenes and the methods used
by Won Stroheim in sustaining and ere
