Many of the luminaries of the silent

big stars would be replaced by con-

But the industry could not shake off
its habits of centering publicity and
advertising on the players. The play
usually came second. New stars were
created. The fans demanded to see

Death Bars Murnau
From Sight of Film,
Named 'FOrbidde
Even South Sea Stars Will
Never See Movie Epic
of Polynesia.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
HOLLYWOOD, Calf, March 1S.-
The title Of the last film directed by
F. w. Murnau, who died Tuesday of in
juries suffered in an automobile acct
dent, contained a grim meaning for its
director and principal actors.
The picture was called "Tabu,"
meaning forbidden. 1t was an epic of
Polynesian life and traditions and, by a
freak of fate, the sight of it has been
forbidden to its makers.
Murnau did not live to see his films
first showing, aid because they live on
a far-off island called Bora Bora, in the
Polynesian group, a boy and girl who
were native leads in the picture, prob
ably never will see themselves on the
screen.
The boy, Matahi, and the girl, Reri,
had never seen a motion picture when
Murnau chose them for the leading
roles in the film, which the director
spent year filming in the South Seas.
Murnau's funeral arrangements have
not been completed, pending word from
his moth-r, Mrs. Cttillie Plunpe, who
lives in Germany.
