Illinois (A Brnufh ofSw^aimn CncrrP' c 11'rrk Plays and Players (Concluded) WHEN Taylor Holmes' picture, "TwoBit Seats'" was projected in the English cinema houses, the managers took care to explain in advance to their patrons the meaning of the slang term. "It is," they announced, "an Americanism; the entire picture is filled with American slang. To begin with, 'Two-Bit Seats' means 'gallery accommodations.' The 'two-bit' is the equivalent of our shilling gallery at the theatre." UNIVERSAL is doing over another one. This time it is Peter B. Kyne's, "The Ihree Godfathers." The new version will be known as "The Gift of the Desert," and Harry Carey will be the chief godfather. MILTON E. HOFFMAN, for several years general manager of the Hollywood studio of the Lasky Company, has been chosen as chief of the new studio of the big Zukor interests in London. Mr. Hoffman is one of the most capable studio managers in the business. His duties on the Coast fall to Charles F. Eyton, who becomes general studio representative in California for the company and Fred Kley who is the new studio manager. Mr. Eyton will divide his time between the Lasky and Morosco studios. Mr. Eyton is the husband of Kathlyn Williams. DW. GRItFITH'S first picture for the . Big Four will be "Romance," the famous stage success of this country and England. Doris Keane, creator of the role of the opera-singer on the legitimate, will be the star of the filmed version. The picture will be made in Florida. Miss Keane's actorhusband, Basil Sydney, will act opposite her on the screen as he did on the stage. DON'T be afraid. That's a wooden gun; and it wooden shoot." That's Mildred Davis' own pun and she admits it's a bad one — the worst she could think of on short notice. Harold Lloyd's new leading lady was recently a visitor at the traps of the Los Angeles Gun Club, and seemed interested in the steady breaking of clay pigeons by the shooters. "It seems such a waste of time and ammunition," she said, "how much easier it would be to take a hammer!" THE novels of Vicente Blasco Ibanez, whose "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" was perhaps the most widely read novel of the war, have been purchased by Metro for screen adaptation. The works include, besides the famous tale, "Mare Nostrum" (Our Sea), "Blood and Sand," and "La Bondega." The Spanish author recently paid a visit to America; and while in Manhattan he was made much of by theatrical and film people. One company induced him to visit their projection room for the showing of one of their products. It made a good publicity story, anyway. ANN KROMAN was a little Danish girl who came to California to seek thought she could get in was because she could ride, swim and dive — and she believed these were all the qualifications necessary. She played bits for a long while; finally she got a part. Then her rise was rapid; and as Ann Forrest she played with Houdini and, lately, with Henrv Walthall in Allan Dwan's "The Splendid Hazard." Her astonishment upon learning that it was not her athletic prowess but her blonde good looks which won her success is unique. "I'm not much to look at," she says naively and modestly, "but look at these photographs. The camera sure is good to me." Erery advertisement in PBOTOPLiiY MAGAZINE is giiaraiitoed.
