Soft Times
(Continued from page 1) ■ ■
you. There's another side. I know. You're afraid of being held up. If the fellow across street knows what you're doing. Don't worry. He'll be doing the same thing. True. You can shelve a weak one. For the big one. That's coming. But that's expensive. And there's a flock of stuff available. All the time. And more in sight.
HAVING FAITH
And proving it. Even these days. Of tuff times. Doesn't stop Whitman Bennett. From buying a studio. And at the same time telling everyone to have faith in this business. Urges optimism. And he's right. There are a lot of people in this business. Who have a wishbone. Where their backbone should be.
WE'RE SORRY
Note from Victor Nurnberg. Of Reelcraft. Denies the allegation. And defies the alligator. Referring to last week's line : That Paul Sarazan was the only composer. In press agent captivity. Nurnberg say's he another. All right. Let's go.
WHAT NEXT
They came. A long line of vamp pictures. Followed by a lot of sex stuff. Just one question: What's next?
BUSY LITTLE AZ
In Berlin. Wouldn't deal with UFA. Not a chance. Then he stepped along. And grabbed a lot of the best people. Of that organization. So Famous now has in Berlin : Lubitsch, who directed Passion. Negri, who starred in it. Mia May; another star. Bratz, the financial expert. And Davidson ; another big power. Also Jennings. Who played Henry VIII. In "Deception." By the way Jennings is an American. And golly ; what an actor?
HISTORIC
That split. Between Ad Kessel and Charley Bauman. Probably Oldest business association in the industry. Except for a few exhibitors. Old story. Just couldn't last. Why?
What's the one thing partners always quarrel about? One guess. Yep ; that's it.
THE BUSY DOCTOR
Riesenfeld. Living in Pullman's. Between New York and Boston. And putting on "Deception" meanwhile. Says it started off to a riot. Then he hustled back. And unearthed a discovery. A real one. To be shown at the Criterion. Don't miss it. It's real. And unusual. That's all he will say. But he worked all night Friday. Getting it ready.
WHY HAVE A HOME
Which reminds. Of Hobe Henley's story. Of when he was working. For a certain company. That believed in efficiency. Worked all night. For three nights. Hand running. Getting his picture in shape. Decided he needed a little sleep. So next day didn't reach the studio at nine. Half an hour later. Was called on the 'phone. "What's the matter?" asked Mr. Studio Manager. "When are you coming down?"
"Don't know," said Henley. "I just got in."
NOW IT'S MOTORS
For SA. Yep ; Lynch. Down Atlanta way. Not satisfied with a few hundred theaters and other banking interests, SA has gone and taken over the Packard motor agency and put Frank Freeman and Millard and the "other boys" in charge. Don't worry; he's still interested in theaters. And pictures. But he likes Packards. And when SA. likes anything he goes to it with all he has.
MARTIN'S LEAGUE
MJQ. Meaning Quigley. Of Chi. Who hasn't enough worries publishing. So he starts a "Public Rights League." To enlist public sentiment. To aid the fights of this industry.
Oh, Martin.
