WHY GRIFFITH MADE
 HIS LATEST PICTURE

D. W. Griffith has an interesting story Co tell of the attitude of his studio when he selected the story for his latest production. Isn't Life Won derful. . which has become one of the most famous Of all films. and which will be the feature at the Bradley Theatre "Wednesday and Thursday
 1t is our custom" he said, ito dis euss the stories proposed for a film with the staff the players and other advisers.
 Some of the stories we have made, only a few people liked before the filming. Of these was The Birth of Nation" Many of my closest ad- visorS earnestly warned me against that story.
 But Isn't Life Wonderful is the one story that no one liked. l told f fo the cameramen and they stood silent. one mentioning a headache 1 told f to the players. and they spoke of vacations. and the hope that when l started the story following tkis one. they would feel ready. The young man who attends co publicity ragged as though l had mortaily affronted him The business office merely registered grim and sinis- ter veto.
 However. i. had the feel to me uf a picture story l could see |. some how. no matter what the objections. If I don't feel story. l never try Co make it: and fl do feel Il, 1 general ly fry tn make it And after all Il wasn't wrong this tune.
 sThs trouble is though how am to judge a story in the future.
