American photOplay

It is announced that this dramatic
and realistic story will be filmed
without any changes. The author
has insisted upon that.
If that is true, then IAN American
Tragedy" will be the boldest and
most truthful story of certain con-
ditions of life ever filmed.
Paramount officials make the fol-
lowing statement:
One of the most important motion
picture announcements of recent
months has Just been made by Jesse
l.. Lasky, who declared that Para
mount has purchased the screen
rights for Theodore Dreiser's can
American Tragedy and that the
book would be filmed exactly as it
is written.
Plans for the production of AN
American Tragedy" call for the
making of the picture on a gigantic
scale. The picture is to be produced
4 by D. w. Griffith, and will be shown
lin legitimate theaters as one of the
most ambitious offerings in the
history of the screen.
"Our picture Of Mr.. Dreiser's
book" said Mr.. Lasky, will be the
most ambitious effort ever made by
our company. Practically every
motion picture producer in the bust
ness has attempted to get the screen
rights to the book and they were
obtained by us only after the pay
ment of record breaking sum and
also after we had given guarantee
to Mr.. Dresser that the book would
be filmed exactly as it is written.
Needless to say we gave this
guarantee willingly and gladly, be-
cause it would be nothing short of
criminal to do anything to this
monumental American work save to
produce it as it is.

Week.

IN1OWN to the last graphic
u detail, the Battle OF
Belleau Wood, one of the major
engagements Of the World War
in which American soldiers took
part, is reproduced in motion
pictures as one Of the sequences
of "The Big Parade, which
Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer are pre-
senting at English's commenc-
ing Sunday night, April 4.
The battle was planned by
general officers Of the Second
Division, U. S. A., and to their
rank and file it was both a
school Of instruction and a re-
view.
The newer recruits learned how it
had been done, but the veterans re-
lived the unforgettable reality.
Several thousand Yanks, most of
whom had been in the real thing,
advanced through Belleau Wood,
supported by artillery, airplanes,
tanks, observation balloons, signal
men, engineers, supply service and
division train. Raked by machine
9gun fire and halted now and then
by exploding mines, the boys In
khaki stormed the enemy branches,
cleaned out machine gun nests, and
''mopped up" the field Of action.
American Legionnaires, personating.
the quondam foes, enacted the
losing side and provided stubborn
and realistic defense.
In the pictures filming, realism
demanded exactitude and the entire
mass action was entrusted to the
army, in the person Of General Ma
lone. commandant of Ft. Sam
Houston, who planned it and was
assisted in carrying through by
Col. Harry Bishop.
The entire personnel Of an Ameri-
can Legion post impaired the
necessary realism to the billeting
episode of a French farmhouse by
playing the roles Of the billeted
doughboys. This was a long but
mir'thsome job in which the vets
reinforced the wide knowledge Of
Laurence Stallings, the author Of
the story, by telling and acting their
own funny experiences with the
