DECEMBER 1924 Pictxire s and Pichure $ver 29 Above : Louise Fazenda who u ihFatiuiy straight for the heavier drama these days. John Roche is a stage actor who has only just gone in for movie work. His ambition, he will tell you, is to make enough money out of movies to make a smashing return to the stage, in a newopera. His next release is Tin: Broadway Butterfly. In that film also, appears Louise Fazenda, who as " Funny Louise Fazenda," was for many years a celluloid comedy queen. Despite her fine dramatic work which has moments of wonderful pathos, Louise is a comedienne first and last. She says funny things and does funny things in real life as well as in the studio. But she yearns for the " higher drama." Watch, her work in This Woman, The Lighthouse by the Sea and The Broadii'ay Butterfly and see how fast Louise is qualifyto realise her ideal. Right : Irene Rich. Rin Tin Tin. Below Irene Hull's thought! on success are characteristic <>f lu-r. " Fur me," sh< writes, " it means little, really. But for my deal "ins, my mother and my two little girlies, for their Bakes I glory in all my work has brought us. 1 hope very much that my English fans will like This Woman, and Tht Man Without </ Conscience, which are my first feature films." Willard Louis's screen life is inextricably connected with foodstuffs of one sort or another. It would seem that food is really his ruling passion for he states quite frankly that he is an excellent chef and that if his new feature films How Baxter Baited In and The Man Without a Conscience bring him real success he means to own a nice country ranch where he can have all the stock he desires. Turtle and frog ponds, a wood full of game, and pens and stalls galore are part of the plan. This from Monte Blue. " I wondered many a time whether I should ever be important enough to have my producer say, ' Oh, no, Monte. No stunts for you. You are too valuable for us to. risk losing you.' To which I imagined myself nobly replying, ' But I insist upon trying to break my neck. I've done it often enough now to be sure my place in Heaven isn't ready for me yet.' But alas ! Madame, my wife, insists that I play no more cowboys or ' Danton's ' but stick to roles like that of ' Debureau ' in The Lover of Camille and my part in The Dark Swan in which the most risky thing I do is to make love to two heroines at once !" According to " Rin Tin Tin's " own personal attendant, the canine star's reply to our query is " Candy, candy, and again candy. But what I'd like best is to see my wife Nanette's joy when my son Rin Tin Tin, junr.,signed his first film contract."
