Anderson and Bessie Sankey in "Broncho Billy and the Schoolma'am's Sweetheart" (Essanay). Gertrude II. — You can preserve the films if they are not used. Biograph believe in vivacity. You are right. Better acting will soon be required in the pictures than on the stage. Stage actors we know to be only actors ; picture actors, in the midst of real scenery, give the impression of reality. Painted sailors, fishermen, mountaineers, etc., would look out of place in the pictures, but they would "go," on the stage.
