Cheers and Hisses (Continued from page 82) We Cant Tell You Why T am an ardent movie fan and consequently deplore any practice that tends to detract from realism. This is my pet aversion. A room is shown with a solitary occupant. Another character enters (with no show of stealth) and approaches. The first character -gives no sign of being aware of another presence until seemingly compelled to take notice. This is absurd. The scene has many variations but always gives the same impression — namely, that some of our film favorites are quite deaf ! I can be lost to my surroundings, living in an enchanted world, so great is the spell of a good picture, for me. Then, alas ! some little faux pas, like the above-mentioned, and I come back to earth with a jar ! Why do they do it? Jane Walk, Toledo, O. A Tip For Comedians \X7hy isn't there a society for the pre'* vention of cruelty to movie actors? I suppose there are some noble souls who are quite willing to fall off horses or into rivers if their art demands it; but I speak principally of the comedians. I honestly think a law should be passed forbidding promiscuous pie-throwing, hose-spraying, and falling into mud-puddles, dirt heaps, flour barrels, etc. I assure you it would be a great boon to the audiences as well. Harold Lloyd and Buster Keaton seem to find plenty of trouble to get into without, apparently, wrecking their studios, and the films they turn out are usually the best of, all. Everybody enjoys a good comedy, but dont you think it takes rather more than wholesale destruction to make one — particularly when the wholesale destruction is so frightfully nauseating? Mary Crary, Chicago, 111. A Flapper Protests "1X7 hy, oh why, do the producers over* * draw things so tragically? Take, for example, these pictures on the modern generation. I wont mention any screen titles, because the pictures are too numerous. In these pictures, parties are held where the girls dance on tables, the fellows carry hip-flasks and every one smokes like a chimney. It would indeed be a tense situation if these things were true, but, thank heaven, they're not ! I've never gone to a party like those described and my set is in a position to give them. My friends and I are fed up on these whirlwind pictures of the jazz age that blow along like a cyclone, crash at the climax and they try to point a moral to help out a rather vague plot. So please, Mr. Editor, tell the producers to take notice of my protest in behalf of my generation and cut out picturing this age as someone imagines it and not as it is. E. M., " Buffalo, N. Y. Winged Horse Needs Spurs T ast week I saw Douglas Fairbanks in J-/ The Thief of Bagdad. Mr. Fairbanks' acting and the picture, on the whole, were entertaining. The settings and atmosphere were wonderful. I have but one criticism to make, and that is Mr. Fairbanks' ride on the Winged Horse. It reminds me of a Larry Semon comedy in which Larry had taken some "snow" by mistake, and with the aid of the slow-motion camera, was flying thru the air at the rate of about two miles an hour. Imagine a horse flying with his wings barely moving. I recommend this ride for a Hysterical History Comedy. Irene Aide, Kansas City, Mo.
