C[ Marie Dressier, Lawrence Gray and Sally OJ^eil in "The Callahans and the Murphys". ersonality— An editorial By ~Elzot Keen NCE in a while Marie Dressier makes a film. The movies go along on that until they are about up to Marie's standard and then she makes another mark for every player to shoot at. "Why!" perhaps you exclaim, "Marie Dressier plays only low comedy parts", and that's just what we were waiting for. Look at her face in this scene and say if you have ever seen a tenderer or lovelier expression. Her rapturous look is uplifting; the greatness of her personality is behind it, giving it life, charity and love. That may be low comedy, but to some of us that is true beauty.
