Name^ ^ J Letters to the Editor {Continued from page 70) Long Live Lon Chaney Dear Editor : Whenever I am asked who is my favorite screen actor, I immediately reply, "Lon Chaney!" There are many reasons why I like him, but there are two in particular. The first is, that, tho he is always given the very hardest roles in the movies, he always gives such an excellent portrayal of them that by his characterization he stands out as the one who makes the picture a success. The second is, that you cannot watch him on the screen for a moment without realizing that he is not acting but living his part. His is the highest contribution that an actor can give to filmdom, for he acts for art's sake. Does anyone dispute me when I say that Lon Chaney is the best character actor on the screen? Whatever the role in which he appears, one is immediately convinced that he was made for it. His Hunchback of Notre Dame was one of the most brilliant pieces of acting ever seen on stage or screen. Of course, one receives a very vivid impression of the hunchback from readin;;' Victor Hugo's book, but after seeing Lon Chaney in the role, he stands out as a figure so pitiable yet so poignantly human that one can never forget him. And fancy the intense bodily torture Lon Chaney must have suffered while playing it ! I trust that the future, which throws everyone into their proper perspective, may hail Lon Chaney as the greatest screen actor of his age. He deserves that honor. Three cheers for him ! A. H., Phoebus, Va. Bumps and Boosts from Readers Dear Editor : Now there is Leatrice Joy — one could not call her beautiful, perhaps, but she certainly is delightful to watch on the screen, where her winning personality captivates her audience from the start. Now, I'm single and I dont intend to get into trouble right away by taking unto myself a wife to battle with the rest of my days. But when I do lead a blushing bride away from the altar, she's going to be the sort of woman I believe Leatrice Toy to be. P. H., Fort Myers, Fla.
