MOVIE SCENES MADE FOR LOCAL FILM YESTERDAY.
CAMERAMAN GOES TO PAPANUI RESIDENCE. The film, “A Daughter of Christchurch,” progressed a stage further yesterday when the company -went to a location at the residence of Dr William Bates, on Papanui Road. The scenes were mainly concerned with a garden party, at which the heroine, Miss Jane Kinsey, is received on her return to Christchurch. The charming garden was an ideal spot, with its old trees and lawns, and Mr Rudall Hayward, the director, expressed himself as very well satisfied with the work done. Mr Hayward is a man of very great patience, and is. in action, the reverse of one's ideas of a movie director. He has no speaking trumpet, and this alone would throw people off the scent if they happened to see him working. He speaks in a quiet voice to the bevy of young ladies who are in the film, and his explanations and technical phrases keep them in the best of humour. They all love it. Miss Jane Kinsey is a charming heroine, and. according to Mr Hayward, shows great aptitude for the work.
