I'd. w. Griffith Tells
just Why He Made
One Exciting Night

Just how and why D. w. Griffith de-
eided to make a picture like "one Ex-
,iting Night" is question which
nearly every one who knows the great
producer has asked.
In the past, Griffith has always
builded his stories upon theme,
dramatizing thought, rather than in
voking pure dramatics for his efforts.
And the success that has followed has
proven the sureness Of his touch and
the breadth of his imagination.
When he appeared with smile to
show the world "one Exciting Night"
many could not understand why SO
radical change in the work of this
producer.
So here is what Mr.. Griffith says
about it:
Il wanted to do mystery story
when did Orphans of the Storm 1t
was the time for mystery stories, the
quick and popular reaction to the melo-
dramas proved that.
| "The public had been thrilled by the
/ war. There was an appetite for thrills,
And for the welfare Of this country 1t
is fortunate thing that this flow of
thrill dramas has resulted. Things In
i dramas that were too strong before
the war are but ordinary incidents now
1t Is not the same public that existed
prior TO the wars not SO sensitive
quicker and franker.
Before the war the tragedy was 9
fatal element Of motion picture. The
public said such things didn't exis,
and that it was gross brutality to pre-
sent them on the screen. The wa,
changed all that. What an astounding
education 1t provedl
! "The mystery play, Of course, Is pri.
marily a thriller. 1t is almost as ole

drama, for most of the early drama,
were terror plays, where there was un.
] certainty. In these plays, of course
It was the characters who were uncer.

posite. There is no more difficult thins
than to put suspense and mystery on
the screen. 1t requires an accuracy OF
time, the action and resoureefulness
in arranging the scenes that is far more
diff1eult than any straight drama.

Nothing's Silent
About the Movies,
Says Pat OMalley

Uur1ng the filming OF Peter B. Kyness
Brothers Under the Skin" which will
be at the Capitol this week, Pat
o'Malley was discussing motion picture
topics In general with group of ae-
tors and actresses. Some one used the
expression silent drama," whereupon
o'Malloy exclaimed:
"Silsnt drama? Bahi There isn't
any such animal. AS 8 matter of fact.
the voice Is one of the most important
elements in screen acting. All Of Us
know, think, that motion picture act
ing closely follows the technique of
the spoken stage and that the voice,
which is the most potent single force
IN the possession of an actor, plays
a large part In the result.
I've played opposite a good many
stars. and 1t has been my experience
that the ones who knew how to use
their voices drew the most from their
casts. All play acting demands GER
tain sincerity and certain assump-
tion on the part Of the audience and
spectators that what is being portrayed
by the actors is true. Now don't
believe that it is possible for motion
picture performers or their directors
TO enter into the spirit Of q photo.

proximately as they would be if thu
