Remarkable moonlight scenes were
obtained in the night studio at Nor

tional exteriors were filmed within
the day studio on Long Island, in
which the replica of an English vii
lage, with a beautiful garden, a
house and winding roadway was con-
structed. To these were added sew
eral picturesque "shots" in Califor-
MIA.
Double exposure necessitated the
taking of most of the exteriors in in
teriors. Two leading cameramen
were used. One was Charles Kosher,
Mary Pickford's cameraman, loaned
to Miss Talmadge during his en-
ployer's recent vacation; the other
was Roy Hunt, Norma's regular cam
era chief.

ing, Alec Francis, Miriam Battista
and other screen notables appear in
support of Miss Talmadge in "Smi-
lin Through which was adapted
for the screen by James Ashmore
