Photoplay (Jul-Dec 1922)

Photoplay Magazine — Advertising Section 121 Questions and Answers (Continued from page 108) Catherine. — So you just can't think about anything else but " Blood and Sand" and when you'll see it. My, my — what a lot of interests you must have. I admit "Blood and Sand" will be worth seeing, with Rodolpho, who is, by the way, five feet eleven inches tall — and Lila Lee as the wife, and Nita Naldi as Dona Sol, participating; but I wouldn't let the thought of it upset my whole life. Betty Compson is twenty-four. Agnes Ayres is five feet four and a half. F. K. M., Garden Isle. — No, I never guessed that Eugene O'Brien was your favorite actor, and Barthelmess your second choice, but I am very glad to hear it, and will make a note of it. Dick has made for First NationalInspiration Pictures "Tol'able David," "The Seventh Day," "Sonny" and "The Bond Boy." There are four Moore brothers: Tom, Matt, Owen and Joe. Ruth A., Chicago. — Claire Windsor and Louis Calhern were co-featured in the Lois Weber productions. The woman director isn't making any more pictures right now. "The Blot" was one of the Weber-WindsorCalhern films. "The Lost Romance" featured Conrad Nagel, Jack Holt, and Lois Wilson who is, I think, one of the most charming girls on the screen. I'm for Lois. Alice S., Glenside, Pa. — You want to see more pictures of Valentino in Photoplay? Unless we turn over the entire magazine to him, or get out a special edition, I don't think you will. How did you like the cover of him? Winifred Hudnut married him in Mexicali, Mexico; but they will have to be remarried in nine months before Miss Hudnut will actually be Mrs. Valentino. You have probably read all about it by now. Cal York, who keeps up on marriages, tells you the details in Plays and Players. There's quite a rivalry between Mr. York and me. He contends he knows more of the players personally than I do. At the last count he knew 567, while I knew 555. But I have more autographed pictures than he has. R. T., Palmetto, Florida. — Sometimes it is hard for me to realize that you aren't kidding me. You asked me once who took the leading part in "The Four Horsemen," and now you want to know who played opposite Barthelmess in "Way Down East." Anna Moore was Miss Lillian Gish. Daisy, Nashua, New Haven. — Thank you, Daisy, very much. I was in a terrible temper today but you have soothed me. I lost my stenographer and my little electric fan. The one I prized so highly flew into a rage and landed in the ink-well. I mean the fan. This was most upsetting, to say the least. You see, my stenographer got married. I knew it would happen sooner or later, but you know how it is. Her particular shade of henna hair is hard to duplicate. I think I'll just hire any stenographer and buy her a titian wig. What do you think? I won't take any drastic step until I hear from you. Richard Neil last appeared in "The Dead Line," a Fox film. I understand he is now writing scenarios. Albert V. M. — I am sorry to have taken so long to answer yours, but I have been so busy — I think I told someone else that my stenographer just got married? Well, I gave her away, of course, and since then I have been interviewing hundreds of applicants daily. The girls have heard what an easy job it is — you see I do all the work; I am so tender hearted I can't bear to ask my stenographer to open letters and look up things in the files and type the answers. Once in a while I send her out to buy stamps — that is, I did until she positively refused to stay if she had to be bothered with that sort of thing. She didn't stay anyway. The job consists chiefly of freezing unfortunate visitors with a look and eating Eskimo pies. Since "Eantomas," Edna Murphy has appeared in "The Northwind's Malice," "Over the Hill," and "Extra, Extra." Just now you can see her in "The Ordeal," with Agnes Ayres. "The Son of Tarzan" was photographed in California. Master R. Lang, New York City. — Very intelligent letter. You say Mae Murray's stories have not been worthy of her talents. I agree with you. Such things as "Fascination" do not do her justice, but they seem to be popular, so there you are. And there is Mae, adding to her fame and fortune; and here I am, answering countless questions about her. She and her husband, Bob Leonard, live in Manhattan in the winter time and in Great Neck, Long Island, in the summer. They have no children. Both made films for Universal years ago, but these are now being reissued, so that's how come. Marjorie, West Virginia. — Awfully sweet of you to write to me on a sunshiny day, good for golf. I suspect that most of the letters I receive are indited on dreary days when there are no calls from the great outdoors. You're a docile child, Marjorie; and your writing is easy to read. So you saw Montague Love in vaudeville as Fagin and as Sidney Carton, and liked him. He's a good actor. You can see him on the screen in "The Beauty Shop." V. L. W. — Theodore Roberts has been on the stage or screen ever since he was a boy. Theodore is a splendid actor. He does a fine bit of work in "Our Leading Citizen." There is a Mrs. Roberts; they are happily married. Address him at the Lasky studios. Also Valentino, Sills, and Holt. The Bebe DanielsJack Holt co-starring combination is not a permanent one, but I believe they are doing another picture together. Emily C, Indianapolis, Ind. — You are a spoiled child, and I would give you a verbal spanking if I thought it would do you any good. As it is, I'm pretty busy, and can't stop. Monte Blue is married, but Eugene O'Brien is a bachelor. It is rumored O'Brien is to play opposite Norma Talmadge again. He went abroad for a short vacation upon the completion of his Selznick contract. E. H., Snow Hill, Maryland. — It is like life, our brief correspondence. After trying for a long time to pluck up sufficient courage to write to me, you ask me for the cast of a picture called 'Undefeated." I, overjoyed, at the opportunity of serving you, no matter how humbly, rush to my records to find the cast of a picture called "Undefeated." And what do I find? Unlike the picture, I find — defeat; for I have no information of any film of this title. And now — now I suppose it is goodbye? Kandy. — Dalton is Dorothy's real name. She has greyish eyes and brown hair, weighs one hundred and twenty-seven, and is three inches over five feet tall. You say you have never had the slightest desire to go on the stage or screen. Congratulations. C. L., Watertown, N. Y. — I assure you I don't feel as cheerful when I'm writing my answers as they sometimes sound. Bert Lytell is his name, and it's his real one, because he is of the family of Lytells, who have been actors for generations. He was born in New York. Harron is the family name. Robert's brother, John, is appearing successfully in pictures made in California. He was in Ncilan's "Penrod." &4tUast!
