Motion Picture Magazine (Aug 1914-Jan 1915)

MOTION PICTURE MAGAZINE 161 L. and W. Caldwell, and Others. — Your signed petition calls for pictures in the Gallery of Mary Anderson, Irene Boyle, Alma Russell, Harold Lockwood, Owen Moore, Tom Moore, Lottie Pickford, Sally Crute, Bessie Eyton, Lillian Drew, E. K. Lincoln, Mabel Normand, Blanche Sweet, Pearl White, Dorothy Kelly, Walter Miller, Ethel Grandin, and the Editor says he will grant the request as soon as he can get suitable photos. M. V. Vorhees, Phila. — Your kind suggestion is not a new one. Many of the companies now give the casts on each film, and no doubt that will be the policy of all in the near future. It would take too much room to print a hundred or more casts each month. Axel. — The size of the aperture plate and also the size of the actual picture on the film is 11-16 inch high by 15-16 inch wide, and each foot of film contains sixteen pictures, but dont forget that a 1000-foot reel contains titles, leaders, etc., and that each picture has four sprocketholes on each side. Positives are printed from the negative, just as you print photos from a negative. Fine penmanship. Vyegynya. — Your questions are fearfully hard to answer, but since you address me as "Dearest of all men," I am going to set a day aside to answer them — soon. One I shall answer now. You ask why is it that the material resources of the United States are great, but as yet so imperfectly known? Because we have been depending on foreign products. But now that the foreign supply is cut off, we shall soon start digging. F. W. Jackson. — Your criticisms are very intelligent and just, and in the main I agree, excepting your remark about Kalem. Miss Sundmaker. — Your verses are so excellent that I shall place them in the hands of Mr. Kerrigan. Gertie. — Miss Brockwell was Annette, Sessue Hayakawa was Koto, and Tsuru Aoki was Katuma in "Belie of Old Japan" (Domino). Hershal Mayall and Gertrude Claire were Mr. and Mrs. Reed, and William Campbell was the son in "Wharfrats" (Broncho). Percy Van V. — You say, "If Wallie has a Van, why does Lillian Walker feet off?" Let me know ahead of time when you are going to spring anything like that. Naomi, of St. Louis. — Yes, all Keystone comedies are passed by the National Board of Censors. Yes ; Carlofta De Felice has left the Vitagraph. Your letter was O K, with large, capital letters. Winnifred M. D. — We will chat Harold Lockwood very soon. Mary Pickford has no permanent leading man. J. C. M., Chicago. — The Vitagraph Theater shows only Vitagraph films. "The Painted World" and "Florida Enchantment" are playing, at this writing, with the daily release also.
