-- Editorial from `Collier's Weekly'.
The Art of the Moving Picture
Price, $1.25
An effort to apply the Gospel of Beauty to a new art.
The first section has an outline which is proposed as a basis
for photoplay criticism in America; chapters on: "The Photoplay of Action",
"The Intimate Photoplay", "The Picture of Fairy Splendor",
"The Picture of Crowd Splendor", "The Picture of Patriotic Splendor",
"The Picture of Religious Splendor", "Sculpture in Motion",
"Painting in Motion", "Furniture", "Trappings and Inventions in Motion",
"Architecture in Motion", "Thirty Differences between the Photoplays
and the Stage", "Hieroglyphics". The second section is avowedly
more discursive, being more personal speculations and afterthoughts,
not brought forward so dogmatically; chapters on: "The Orchestra Conversation
and the Censorship", "The Substitute for the Saloon",
"California and America", "Progress and Endowment",
"Architects as Crusaders", "On Coming Forth by Day",
"The Prophet Wizard", "The Acceptable Year of the Lord".
