In that, Elsie Ferguson did the best
acting Of the year. =.
Short subjects have not been
considered in the above list. They
will be treated separately. And
Women Must Weep" Robert
Bruce's two-reel classic, ranks as
one Of the most notable contribu-
tons yet made to the screen.
Looking back over 1922, l recall
two prophecies made in this COL
umn. One was after seeing Paul
inc Garon in Sonny" said she
had Personality with a capital "P"
and that big things we're in store
for her. She has just completed
the feature role in Adams Rib"
Cecil B. DeMille's attest film opus.
Seven months ago / predicted that
Henry Murdoch, playing small
parts in Christie comedies, would
some day be ranked high among
the screen actors, although he had
occupied an obscure place in the
films for five. years. He Is now a
featured player in Christie come
dies.
1t has been many months Since
l have seen "One Glorious Day"
and THE Stroke Of Midnight" but
despite the thousands of feet of
film that have passed before my
eyes in the interim the brilliancy of
those two pictures remains undim-
med. 1 consider "One Glorious
Day" the most distinctive picture
yet filmed. 1t vindicates the screen
as an art. 1t belongs peculiarly
and clearly to the screen and to no
other medium of expression.
1.-THE Stroke OF Midnight" Is the
only foreign film in the list 1
name. 1t is the work Of Victor Sea-
strom, Swede who directed and
starred in it. Loves of Pharaoh"
Missing Husbands" and "A Bill Of
enforcement were the only other
foreign films of. merit shown in
America during the year. "The
Glorious Adventure" was interest
ing merely because of its expert
ment in color photography.
The Rock Island Argus and daily union. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1920-1923, 1922-12-30

New York, Dec. 30.-Percy Mac
Kaye and l have Just been talking
about the movies. He knows in
finitely more 1bout the. fine arts
than 4 do. His ideas about the
movies seem to be somewhat in
definite think the truth Oh the
matter is that Percy MacKaye I'M
til now has paid little attention to
the photoplay because he in no
way considered it an art.
MacKaye is known as a high
brow" He has written poems.
plays. essays. operas, Mosques and
pageants. Now he is collaborating
with the Film Guild in screening
''The Scarecrow," MacKayes most
popular play, &, a
what do you consider the most
important element in the photo
play?" I asked him.
1.-THE theme, OF course" he an
swered. ut should center on con-
flict. It should deal with elemen-
tails, strong passions. That is the
essence of all drama It is the
thing that sereryone understands.
All arts must appeal to the masses.
The mistake that isemade by pro-
ducers of phOtoplays is the making
of'false distinctions. There is no
definite line between the 'highbrow'
and the 'lowbrow,' the poor and
the rich in the matter of under
standing.
1.-The development of the photo
play must be. along the line of
treatment, the development Of orig
inality in dealing with the theme.
The method of treatment should
not be influenced in any way by
consideration Of the class Of peo-
pie to be reached. II the finished
product is the result Of sincerity,
its success is assured"
1 didn't remind MacKaye of Zone
Glorious Day" THE Stroke of
Midnight" "The Jack Knife Man"
and Sentimental Tommy" Those
