Reel fife, A MAGAZINE OF MOVING PICTURES MERRITT CRAWFORD Editor PUBLISHED BY THE MUTUAL FILM CORPORATION 29 Union Square, New York City Telephone, Stuyvesant 683 HENRY JAMES Business and Advertising Manager Vol. V, No. 16 JANUARY 2, 1915 Five Cents — $2.50 a Year "Taking" a Scene Amid Picturesque Surroundings Director John O'Brien, of the Majestic-Mutual Company, Staging "The Old Fisherman's Story" on \ the Rugged Calif ornian Coast. Perhaps no stretch of the Pacific shore-line lends itself more readily for reproduction on the screen, than the wild and desolate reaches of Portuguese Bend, where this picture was taken. Certainly few spots present the same possibilities for stereoscopic effects, coupled with the impressive grandeur of its sea and mountain background.
