The Filmgoers' Annual 21 G EORGE PEARSON, the creator of "East Lynne on the Western Front " is one of the most gifted and most genuine men in the British film world. He was a schoolmaster, and entered films in 1913 as a scenario writer. He is known to all filmgoers for discovering and developing Betty Balfour, the only authentic cinema star in the sense of being the WESTERN FRONT ! played continuously in one character, we have had in Britain. George Pearson was also responsible for the very beautiful talking picture translation of " Journey's End." He introduced Sir Harry Lauder to the screen. He is perhaps the best emotional director we have in British pictures. His " Love, Life and Laughter " stands out as one of the most beautiful films made in any country. His work has beauty of sentiment and kindliness of humour.
