Colleen Moore

Colleen Moore can do it, but she
is the exception that proves the rule.
In fact, she gave her director in
"Slippy McGee," in which she is CO
featured with Wheeler Oakman, quite
jolt by her remarkable crying
artistry.
While the company was on location
at Natchez, Miss, Director Wesley
Ruggles was explaining a scene to
the popular Colleen. After outlining
the action, he added that just before
she turned to the exit she must pro-
duee tears.
"Do you want one large tear" she
asked him, cor a row Of little ones 2"
Someone remarked that tears were
tears, but Director Ruggles was in
terested. He asked her to display her
crying wares, and she did, exhibiting
more different kinds of tears-as re-
CARDS both size and action-than
most of the group watching her ever
imagined existed.
1t is an interesting coincidence that
Miss Moore, who is now SO adept at
crying when called upon, came near
losing her chance at motion picture
career because at one time she could
not cry.
D. w. Griffith met little Colleen,
then a youngster of fifteen, in Chi
cago one day. Impressed by her
charm and beauty, he offered her a
part in his next production. But be-
fore asking her to come all the way
to California, he decided to give her
camera test to see how she photo
graphed and also to determine

whether or not she could act.

whether or not she could act.
]. She passed the test easily-up to
the very last one, and that was the
orr she thought would be easiest of
all, for as a child she had played
actress" and had given herself this
test time and again. But as the
famoris director said "Now cry!" the
tears would not come. She tried and
tried, but her eyes remained fearless.
She was in despair.
"Then l thought" she explains in
telling the story, "of the man | ad-
mired most, wearing what l loathed
most-Charlie Chaplin wearing a
rolka-dot necktie! The tears came
then, and / have never had any
trouble with tears since"
Miss Moore's climb TO fame has
been steady and well-earned. Critics
and public alike have praised her re-
cent portrayals. In "Slippy MCGEE, "
the Oliver Morosco production for
early First National release, she is
said to be at her best.

TEARS TO ORDER, BIC OR
LITTLE, FURNISHED BY
CHARMING COLLEEN

Can you make your tears come big
or little, singly or in a stream, quick
ly or slowly? If you can make tears
exactly to order, you are possessed
of talent that would make even
motion picture actresses green with
envy, for it is a rare talent indeed.
