"Shots" — from Broadwest-^^
£500 IN PRIZES. GRAND NEW COMPETITION NEXT MONDAY.
With the approach of the longer and brighfei days, activities at the BROADWEST Walthamstow Studio are being gradually accelerated, and it has become a veritable beehive.
Miss Violet Hopson is now very busyplaying the leading part in a film adaptation of H. Annesley Vachell's famous stage play, entitled " Her Son." Nicholas who is Miss Hopson's school-boy son, is also appearing in this film, as well as Stewart Rome, Mercy Hatton, Mary Masters, and other well-known film players — and Solomon, the dog. I almost forgot him.
But although Miss Hopson has been so busy with her film work, she found time last month to visit the Pottery district, and make a tour of Messrs. T. C. Wild's famous factory. What a reception she received ; hundreds of people from Stoke-on-Trent laid siege to her when she changed trains for her destination, and on arriving at Longton the main thoroughfares were crowded.
Meanwhile, Gregory Scott, Poppy Wyndham, and Cameron Carr were busily engaged creating the hero, heroine and the villain respectively, for the latest BROADWEST racing film. "A Dead Certainty." Mr. Walter West is personally directing this film, and as there is no other producer who knows the A B C of the British turf better than he, you can rest assured that " A Dead Certainty " literally vibrates w ith the excitement of our national sport. And pretty Poppy Wyndham wears the loveliest frocks imaginable for this film ; they are all copied from the most up-todate Parisienne creations, and they are warranted to turn every picture-goer of the gentler sex almost green with envy.
The 15th of this month will see the release of " In the Gloaming." Violet Hopson, Jack Jarman, and Cameron Canappear in the leading parts, and the story, which is founded on the old song, was written especially for production by the BROADWEST Company. A greatcart of the film is located in the backwoods of Australia, and the final scenes show a wonderful light between Cameron Carr and another actor w ho pla\ s the part < >l a miner.
The film breathes of the " great outdoois," and, apart from the unique story, the acting of the leading players will make a big impression.
