The Village Movie Published Weekly by the VILLAGE THEATRE COMPANY, Wilmette, III. M. L. SPARR, Editor For Advertising Space apply to THE PRINTING STUDIO, Wilmette, 111. Volume 1: Number 24 Wilmette, Illinois, January 9, 1915 A Splendid Paramount When visiting in Indianapolis recently, I dropped into the leading motion picture house—showing Paramounts, of course—and saw Bessie Barrlscale in "The Rose of the Rancho." Naturally, I have seen many pictures, but this was one of the most delightful I ever saw. I cannot too strongly commend it to North Shore folks, and you will really be missing one of the very best Paramounts it you don't see it. MOVIE FAN. Pictures of Our Beautiful Village Occasionally the Essanay Film Company wants something special in the way of scenery for their pictures. What more natural than that they should turn to the beautiful North Shore? In the picture, "Their Cheap Vacation," the principal scenes are taken at Wilmette, Kenilworth and vicinity. See Wallace Beery and Betty Brown in this local comedy. Sign Your Lefters We are always delighted to receive letters of commendation, and we do not frown upon letters of criticism, but we do not and will not respond to letters unless signed by the writer. Why not come out into the open? South African Setting The territory in which the photoplay "The Last Chapter" is localized is that section of Africa stretching from the Guinea Coast inland to Lake Chad, which lies almost on the southern border of the Sahara Desert, and the intervening territory traversed by the story of the picture lies almost under the equator. Biographies of Your Favorites Each week we will answer your questions as near as possible in regard to your favorite. Don't be afraid to ask questions. Get acquainted. THE VILLAGE MOVIE is at your service and only too willing to help you. Alice Joyce We all admire Alice Joyce, and she was indeed surpassingly lovely in "The Theft of the Crown Jewels," which appeared at the Wilmette recently. In that picture she actually wore jewels approxmating a total value of a million dollars, and her gown was designed by Lucille (Lady Duff-Gordon). Miss Joyce is without doubt one of the most beautiful women appearing on the motion picture screen. She was born in Kansas City twenty-three years ago, and has never appeared on the stage. Before going to the Kalem studio, she did work in the Harrison Fisher studio and became quite widely know as "the Harrison Fisher girl." She is a typical New York girl now and likes that city better than any other place. She makes and designs most of her clothes, delights in riding, is a fearless swimmer, and a great lover of all out-of-door sports. She has become such a favorite among our friends, that we will endeavor to have her with us most every week. Watch the program at the Wilmette so that you will not miss any of the "Alice Joyce pictures."
