KOLKER SEES
ADVANTAGE
IN SCREEN

Henry Kolker, appearing with
Madge Bellamy in the Fox Films
production, soft Living" open
ing today at the Tox Theater, be.
lieves that the rcreen actor has
the advantage over the stage actor.
"A stage actor often takes four
weeks to rehearse a particular
scene, which is the zenith of his
performance" says Kolker. When
the big light arrives. with the
critics and first-nighters waiting
in expectation, a single blunder
would tear down wha- years have
taken to accomplish.
That's where the screen actor
has the advantage-he has nothing
to relIearse, With til exception of
the spoken titles. If the director
doesn't like a particular scene,
which happens quite frequently.
he can either shoot it again or cut
it out entirely, thereby assuring
himself of perfection.
Kolker is cast in Soft Living"
as one of the pivotal characters.
MaCge Bellamy plays the leading
part. Others in the cast are John
Mack Brown, Mary Duncan,
Thomas Jefferson and Olive Tell.
