JACKANAPES ( 1910) 17 Players in early mob scenes had to riot with a certain degree of restraint, lest they kick over or ram through the architecture. This somewhat constricted melee is from another Bosworth film, Jackanapes. Bosworth is standing, second from the left. BELOW LEFT Nestor comedies were ground out as fast as one or two a week. Here is an early one, featuring (left to right) Dorothy Davenport (later Mrs. Wallace Reid), Harold Lockwood, Donald MacDonald, and Eugenie Forde. BELOW BIGHT A later (1913) Nestor comedy, featuring Eddie Lyons, Betty Compson (who later achieved stardom in The Miracle Man), and Lee Moran.
