MOVIE ASPIRANTS
POUR INTO CITY
OF HOLLYWOOD
Each year 120,000 movie aspirants
pour into Hollywood. Out of this
vast army a few few attain even mod
erate success. “What enabled these
few to climb out of the crowd?” Helen
Bulitt Lowry asked Sidney Olcott, di- (
rector of many successful movies. His
answer appears in February Good .
Housekeeping.
“It’s a pity,” Mr. Olcott said, “to ' .
send any more girls and boys off to ,
Hollywood. The congestion there is .
already appalling. But it cannot be ,
helped as motion picture engagements
do not come by mail.
“You see,” he continued, “nobody
has a right to tell you that you have .
the goods until you have actually been ‘ (
tried out—actually had your chance at j
a bit—and succeeded or failed.
“Do not misunderstand me. 1 do
not mean that each of the 120,000 that
pour into Hollywood each year has a ,
sporting chance. I mean that one or .
two persons out of the 120,000 do at
tain moderate success because they
came with the goods. The goods they
must have are vivid personality, plus
dramatic experience and ability, plus {
pluck, plus living expenses for at j
least three years, plus a charming j
personality.
“You observe that I did not say any- j
thing at all about ‘great beauty.’ The !
industry at this time has need for !
good actors who are not beautiful

han for beauties who can act.
Beauty will do one great service for
i girl. It will get past the casting
lirector and give her a chance to do
itmosphere. Personality goes a long
vay also. You can’t explain person
ality. But it is the explanation of the
an system and popularity.
“And then when her opportunity
'omes her whole future hangs on five
minutes acting. If she fglls down, I
'or one, will not give her a second
•hance. I haven’t time. The moment
las come for her to succeed or go
nto the discard.
“And how has she been training to
neet this moment? I am inclined to
hink about the most practical prepa
•ation is to go through a good dra
matic school in New York, where she
ivill learn the rudiments of dramatic
expression. She certainly cannot
earn on my picture.”
Leo Fogge, an old timer of the Fair
banks section, returned on the last
boat and left for the interior.
