THE MICHIGAN DAILY t' ney is scheduled in Seen On The Stage---Screen (Edwin R. eiss)r The announcement of the presen- tation of "Passion" at the Majestic1 theatre for the next seven days is one which allows everyone the pleasant opportunity of seeing a motion pic- ture of great educational as well as entertainment value, and one which is perhaps the advance agent of a long-heralded photodramatic art which is to come. It is significant that this type of play, unexcelled by any other work except possibly that of David Grif- fith, should have emerged from a European source. "Passion" is the genus of picture to which D. W. Grif- fith is tending, a photoplay which al- though in parts is spectacular, de- pends rather upon the delicacy of the acting for its force and interest. Field New to Europe Europe is a comparatively new film field. The United States is the vet- eran of the industry. Then the ques- tion naturally arises, why must such' a picture as "Passion" be given us by Europe? Why do we not film this nately their numbers are few and better class of story? The answer is their patronage has little pecuniary obvious concerning America; the value. o.F r sw ciucis . clnar. ._n bli ney is scheduled in number of amusing situations. The "Tickle Me."

For this reason the motion picture industry must cater to the taste of the masses. If it does not it is lost. The masses, on the other hand, hold a rather low conception of the pur- pose of a motion picture. It is to{ most of them merely a means of pass- Helena on ruic This is the dilemma of the Ameri- can producer. His standards can rise only as do those of the people upon whom he depends or his exist-' ence is endangered. Perhaps little by little, and it is being done, he can elevate the masses from stage to stage, but it is a f'r-fetched proce s which can more easily be accomplish- ed if the people themselves adopt ia new attitude toward the motion pic- ture, the attitude which will enable' the photoplay more quickly to be viewed as a reflection of life and not a jumble of cheap imagery.
