WALLACE WORSLEY DIRECTOR "Up to the time we saw 'The Hunchback' we were under the impression that some foreign directors could teach us something about handling mobs and big scenes; but we've changed our minds, thanks to Wallace Worsley, who directed 'The Hunchback.' He has done a noble bit of work and one well deserving a special niche in the Hall of Fame. From now on Worsley is on our list of wonder men of the screen." —DON ALLEN in the N. Y. Evening World September 4, 1923. "Turning our attention to the flesh and blood elements in the ensemble, we find that two names stand out boldly — Wallace Worsley and Lon Chaney. Mr. Worsley directed the picture and in doing so he climbed definitely into the select company of the movie great. He has made a magnificent job of this picture, displaying a positive genius for composition, for mass effect and for the development of drama by purely pictorial methods." —ROBERT E. SHERWOOD in the N. Y. Herald September 3, 1923. 104
