Director Saves Day
By Doing Own
Gorilla"

Mystery pictures are difficult to
make, IT Is said in Hollywood.
There are many details and every
thing must be exactly timed In
order that the proper effect may
be registered. The slightest devia-
ton will mean a ruined scene.
''The Gorilla" the hilarious mys-
tery-comedy featuring Charlie MUIR
ray, with Fred Kelsey, which il
now showing at the Earle, Is re-
ported to have been one Of the
most difficult films to make in
years.
The most difficult part Of all,
It is reported, was to find q
GORILLA gigantic ape-map that
could be ferocious, and yet gentle
enough to be trusted with the
carrying of the leading lady, Alice
Day.
Edward Small, the producer OF
the picture, tried everything and
everybody he could think of. He
wired the man who had captured
and trained Miss Congo. the gorilla
now with Ringing Brothers circus,
but her contract forbade her APP
pearing in pictures at that par
ticular time.
Next, Mr.. Small tried to get a
man who would appear as the
gorilla" but q suitable type could
not be secured.
However, while the search for
someone to play the title role was
in progress, the balance of the
company, including Miss Day,
Tu1ly Marshall, Claude Gilling-
water, Wilter Pidgeon, Brooks
Benedict, and, Of course, the two
demon detectives, Mulligan and
Clarity. played by Charlie Murray
and Fred Kelsey, went ahead with
the picture under the direction of
Alfred Santell.
3 When the gorilla scenes came
around, Mr.. Small found just what
he needed for the title role.
THE Gorilla" Is played by him
self.
