Author Description

Excerpt from Picture-Play Magazine, Vol. 22: March, 1925 This theory, it seems to me, explains the never -ending popularity Of Mary Pick ford, Charles Chaplin, Charles Ray, and others who have adhered to an individual peculiarity and become famous. The world at large does not want Our Mary in grown up parts; Charles Chaplin in anything but the old familiar stuff he alone can give; Charles Ray other than an honest country boy. Maybe this is the reason Milton Sills, Dick Barthelmess, and Monte Blue have not become still greater stars. They are splendid actors, have fine personalities, and good looks, but, at times, disappoint us with portrayals that differ from what we want and expect from them.
