60 GRIFFITH TURNS A PAGE "Take that, you cad!" In 1915 Jack Holt was playing serial villains, as witness the above humiliating encounter with Francis Ford and Grace Cunard.

Griffith pooled their resources to produce jointly Tinder the name of Triangle Pictures.

The place was known as Inceville, and it was an ancestor of M-G-M.
