MOVIE M /*. K E K 9
The photography of George Barnes is largely straightforward, little more being required by the subject, aided as it is by its unusual settings.
The scenario, we joyfully announce, seems to have no moral. We doubt if it even has any social significance. One shudders at the thought of how much of both a less skillful director might have injected. If anything but an entertaining story, it might be termed "a slice of life," to borrow the terminology usually reserved for the cumbrous tragedies of the Russias.
The purpose of this department is to discover and recommend photoplays which will, within reasonable measure, satisfy the cintelligenzia. As you may have suspected before this, "Our Dancing Daughters" is recommended.
EDUCATIONAL FILMS
(Continued from page 796)
are not marred by the limitation of being human. They are modeled figures of people, animals and witches, characters who are more often real to children than actual people.
These pictures, which might well fit into a kindergarten or home education program for the very young, are in the form of serials. A new episode is to be issued each month. Each episode is four minutes in length, the first of which was released in October. Three separate stories, each with four parts, make up this penetration of the movies into Peter Rabbit's field of activities. "Snap, the Gingerbread Man," heads the cast of one; "Chip, the Wooden Man," leads another, while the third records "The Doings of the Doodlebugs." Intelligent treatment of the subject matter in respect to the fantasy world of childhood should have a particular appeal, as a visual representation is, of course, more easily grasped than word symbols, hence the entertainment and educational values are greatly increased. Interpretation of these films in terms of the personal actions of the little ones might well prove of genuine educational importance.
CRITICAL FOCUSING
(Continued from page 790)
whole story from his arrest to his final imprisonment is told in a few brief scenes. Shots of the gangster in the patrol wagon, at the trial and in his cell rapidly dissolve from one to the other. This treatment is economical in both settings and film and its value to the amateur producer is obvious.
