Advertising Section 103 A Rising Vampire Continued from page 83 she became a headliner in the revue at Tait's Cafe. Her beaut} and grace attracted the attention of a movie director and she was given her first screen opportunity in "Life's Greatest Question," a picture featuring Roy Stewart and Louise Lovey. The results were neither flattering nor encouraging, in her opinion. "I was simply awful," she said. "Positively homely ! But I have since learned that the fault was with my make-up and it has proven to me that make-up has much to do with making or marring a beginner's chances in the picture game." Spurred with a renewed ambition of some day becoming famous as a dancer and touring Europe, she continued at Tait's until the expiration of her contract. And at this point, just two years ago, Fate stepped in disguised as a little vacation trip to Hollywood, and again Opportunity knocked timidly at her door. Various and many offers were made to her by producers and managers of the cinema colony and — accepted. She was first cast in the role of a vamp in "A Wild Party," at Universal. Then an independent company secured her services for four or five pictures — "horse operas," she calls them. Universal called her back to play the part of Florine, the vampire in "Rose of Paris," with Mary Philbin. When arrangements were being made to produce "The Triflers," featuring Mae Busch, she was given an ingenue part, but hers was the face on the cutting-room floor and she is still wondering what became of her scenes. She believed her days in the picture world were about to come to an end when she was cast as the Virgin in a film by that name made by an independent company.. Harry Cohn saw the picture and the result was that she was signed up to a longterm, personal contract by him last February. Since that time she has been starred in six different films. She is five feet four inches tall, weighs one hundred and twenty-four pounds, has brown hair and grayishblue eyes with long curled-up lashes. Her perfectly chiseled features and the oval contour of her face remind one of the original of a beautiful cameo. The why of me keeps questioning and wondering, where, oh, where were De Mille, Warner Brothers, Lasky, and a few others of the discriminating producers, when Dorothy Revier stepped onto the horizon of cinemaland? She is worth watching.
