FILM FOLK

"Close-ups" of the Men, Women and Children who make the "Movies."

_By_ ROB WAGNER

A book of humor and entertaining facts. It is a sort of Los Angeles
Canterbury Tales wherein appears the stories, told in the first person, of
the handsome film actor whose beauty is fatal to his comfort; of the child
wonder; the studio mother; the camera man, who "shoots the films"; the
scenario writer; the "extra" man and woman, whose numbers are as the sands
of the sea; the publicity man, who "rings the bells," etc., etc.

All the stories are located in or near Los Angeles, a section more densely
populated with makers of "movies" than any other section on earth. The
author lives there, he has been in sympathetic contact with these votaries
of this new art since its beginning, and his statements are entirely
trustworthy.

"Film Folk" is not a series of actual biographies of individuals; the
author in each case presents an actor, a director or one of the other
characters for the sake of concreteness and to carry out the story-form,
and he contrives to set forth in the course of the book the entire
movie-making world. The reader gets a clear idea of how the films are made
and he is immensely entertained with the accounts of the manners and
customs of the inhabitants of the vast movie villages--manners and customs
unique in many respects.

The stories are told in a style as easy to read as the author is
good-humored.
