„When the million-dollar Chaplin deal went over“
Editorial content. „TALLY RETURNS
T. L. Tally, vice-president of the First National Exhibitors‘
Circuit, is in Loa Angeles again. He returned from
the east last week with a bundle of contracts and a lot of news.
He was in New York when the million-dollar Chaplin
deal went over, whereby the great comedy star is to supply
eight pictures in one year. His first release is to be
ready by November first.
Mr. Tally was entertained by many of the large producers
while in the East, but says that the facilities for making
motion pictures there do not compare with those of Los Angeles.
,Their studios are on no such scale, nor their
equipment of such proportions as those of our larger studios
here,‘ he said, ,and while I found many fine directors
and enthusiastic and skillful producers I think that California
is the right place to make pictures.‘“
