How I Became A Photoplayer (1917) đşđ¸
âA motion picture actress must know how to ride, to shoot, to fence, to dance, and to motorâ |
|
âI 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 photoplayâ |
|
|
âLike 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 stageâ |
âShould you honor me to the extent of desiring my autographed photo, I shall be glad to send you oneâ |
|
âThe first picture I worked in was never releasedâ |
|
âI 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 wantedâ |
|
âI have had many offers to return to the so-called legitimate stage, but nothing now, it seems, will ever divorce me from the Photoplayâ |
