GEORGE ARLISS
ADORED IN THE STUDIO TWO NEW FILMS IN ENGLAND * How England, and particulaily Gau mont-British Studios, appreciated George Arliss is shown by tins sketch from an eye-witness on “The Iron Duke” set — “I noticed the marvellous patien'ee and unflagging good humour of the star; the respect with which he was treated by everyone, including the director, Victor Savill, who called him ‘Sir,’ deferred to him on eveiy point; and the affection Air Arliss seemed to inspire in everyone around him. “Between the shots he was ready wdth a word and a smile and a quiet little joke for any member of the, cast in his vicinity. He was interested in everyone, and everyone obviously adored him.” Two more films will be made in England by George Arliss. The first, an entirely new type of Arliss vehicle, will be Vailed “Spike.” In this “amiable comedy” the star w’ill play a tramp whose name is that of a world-famed financier. Air Arliss will then appear as Samuel Pepys, in which film he will be shown more as the hard-working patriot than the dilettante diarist.
