How I Became A Photoplayer (1917) 🇺🇸
“A motion picture actress must know how to ride, to shoot, to fence, to dance, and to motor” |
|
“I have just completed my seventeenth film production, or approximately 225,000 feet of celluloid in the two years in which I have been in the photoplay” |
|
|
“Like every other actress, I had long since decided that the movies were a haven of refuge for those inferior actors and actresses who had difficulty in obtaining regular employment on the stage” |
“Should you honor me to the extent of desiring my autographed photo, I shall be glad to send you one” |
|
“The first picture I worked in was never released” |
|
“I took up the study of law. Once when I took the floor and delivered a brief legal plea, I knew instantly it was the stage I wanted” |
|
“I have had many offers to return to the so-called legitimate stage, but nothing now, it seems, will ever divorce me from the Photoplay” |
Who’s Who in the Film Game (1912)
Madame Blaché has very little patience with the film censors. She is French and believes in realism |
|
Charlie Hite is one of the very few film men who recognized the possibilities of outside investors |
Sans Grease Paint and Wig (1912 to 1914) 🇺🇸
“I write, produce and take the lead in my own pictures. My record so far is to write and produce a picture in six hours. Easy!” |
|
“I was the first legitimate star to go into pictures” |
|
“I’ve never been interviewed by a girl in my life” |
|
“I try to be funny in my appearance and my actions on the screen: funny but never repulsive. Always odd, but never repulsive” |
|
“In the fall one wants to be right in New York; there is everything one wants in New York” |
|
“Fat? It’s the new kind of skin-food I’m using!” |
|
“Terrible times I’ve had in New York — terrible!” |
|
“I just love the work because there is always something new and the players have time to live like real people” |
|
“‘Lab-a-die’ is the correct way, but I don’t mind how it is pronounced. It should have been ‘Smith’” |
|
“If I was dressed as a messenger boy, it must have been a hot day” |
|
“I seemed to fill the requirement of the youthful lead, so here I’ve been ever since” |
|
“There’s always more fun in doing what one shouldn’t do” |
|
“Fiery red [hair was] the curse of my young life, but thank heaven, I was spared watery blue eyes” |
|
“My work in pictures has earned me the title ‘dare-devil.’ There is nothing I have been asked to do that I didn’t do” |
|
“I’m dreadful at higher mathematics” |
|
“It’s been a rush from one scene to another and from the studio to the dressing-room and back again. And that’s what I love — lots of rush” |
|
George Periolat (December 1912) “Photoplays are the greatest things in the world, today; and they’ve just started. The players who get into them now, while the profession is still young, are lucky” |
|
“I put my foot in my mouth every time I open it, and I can’t tell you any pretty tales to make a story out of; all I can do is tell you the truth” |
|
“Appearance is a study, and clothes are as much a part of this study as grease-paint and wig” |
|
Richard Travers | |
“Not that I would have objected to becoming president of the bank, some day, but there were several men ahead of me who would have had to die first” |
|
“I believe too, that the object should be to project thought, in making a meaning clear instead of gesticulating. These are simple methods, but simplicity always scores strongest” |
|
“I’m usually cast as ‘heavy’ but in the picture we came here to make, I have a straight part. The character and I last throughout the four reels.” |
|
“I can do the most daring things and not get a scratch, but the minute I try something easy I nearly lose my life” |
|
“It’s necessary to be in touch with things right at their heart, with all due respect to Jersey.” |
|
“I began my stage work as a quartet” |
