Mrs. Righton is quite a pioneer in the work, states "The Evening Post," for before her marriage she was associated with the supply of films in Christchurch. There was no Picture Supplies, Limited, in those days, and Mrs. Righton and her partner never knew what was the next picture to arrive and what toi star on a programme, which generally consisted of about half a dozen different short films. Those were days before America had captured the film business, and the Pathe pictures were the chief source of supply.
