We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Eddie Quillan and Maureen O'Sulli'van on the RKO-Pathe lot where they are both working in "The Big Shot." Maureen was borrowed by Pathe from Fox for this picture. Following its completion she'll return to the Fox lot to make "Hoorah." Did you know that Eddie Quillan was marched into his first movie job on the arm of a detective? It seems that Eddie was playing in vaudeville and Mack Sennett wanted him for a picture. Eddie had disappeared on tour or something. Sennett had to send a detective after him.
