Barthelmess may, If he runs

Jones. well known Hollywood writer.
Barthelmess is a Hollywood institu-
tion with ideas, opinions and prejudices
and an ability to put them into words
If and when he can be persuaded to eX-
press them. jogging along beside this
energetic young actor as he hurried
from dressing room to portrait gallery
and from portrait gallery to projection
room on the First National lot is not
the ideal method of collecting infor-
nation, but one collects a great deal
of it in spite Of everything.
The reason for all the haste this time
was q three-way one Barthelmess had

gruelling work He was temporarily in
volved in law suit in which he was
attempting to get judgment against a
brokerage house over a transaction in
stocks and he was packing for vaca-
ton trip to Norway.
Hollywood is a much more vital place
than it used to be- he said, at last.
There are better minds here now, but
also more economic pressure. Much of
the color is gone. There is more work
and less play.
Hollywood is more interesting than
it was. but less spectacular. Not even
the brown derby has the atmosphere
that you used to find at the Sunset
Inn or at the Vernon Country Club l
think it is remarkable that Hollywood
has never been able to support any one
famous restaurant or one flrst-rate

The famous Sunset Inn still keeps

up the continuity as we rehearsed. Often
we rehearsed for 8 or 10 weeks"
This mention of David Wark Griffith
brought further questions.

fact I doubt If any one ever will.

thing that keeps this business always

prospect of important change. Talking

r HOLLYWOOD. Calf, July 10
It's been quite the thing lately
to import style experts to
i i Hollywood so that our screen
stars will be the last word In
chic and at least six months ahead OF
the current fashions. Part OF the duty
of these stylists is to suggest change
of type in clothes If they think an
actress isn't being gowned correctly.
This is the first thing Margaret Brock
Pemberton did with Ann Harding,
whom she considered gowned in too
demure a fashion.
Working along these same lines. Cecil
3. De Mile is going to try an interest
ing experiment with ELISA Lanai. re-
Gently borrowed from Fox to play the
lead in The Sign of the Cross" Ac-
coroing to De Mile. styles in screen
stars change from season TO season
with the heroines OF yesterday becoming
as out-moded as your last years nat
That is. all but one type. which he con-
siders to be egeless in its appeal This
is the ethereal type of woman who. In
his opinion, is as popular now as she
was in the early days OF the movies.
She has outlived the vamps OF the
T'heda Bara period the simple lassies
OF Mary Miles Minters day and the
flaming flappers made popular by Clara
Bow and Colleen Moore. And this be-
cause she most closely approximates the
ideal woman.
In casting Miss Landi as Mercia, the
Christian who remains pure though
surrounded by the wickedness Of pagan
Rome, Cecil De Mile is giving heI a
chance to play a totally different type
OF role than she has ever before por-
trayed on the screen. She has certainly
not been noted for her ethereal" parts
in films She usually plays modern
ultra-sophisticated young women, who
are either deliberately looking for
trouble or, through force Of circum-
stances brought close to the well known
flame that sears. De Mile evidently
sees something in her that other di-
rectors have not found, and the results
of this radical departure from type Will
be interesting to see.
I asked De Mile lust what this was
and he told me that to him she had
''the depth Of the ages in her eyes. to-
day in her body and tomorrow in her
spirit a thing he says that hasn't
characterized more than 10 actresses
since the motion pictures began.
Mary Pickford according to De Mile
was the first screen player who falls
into his classification of ethereal
actresses. And it is this quality that
brought her to the heights OF popular
