Chaplin to Build New Studio
Comedian to Abandon Mutual Plant and Will Construct
Large Establishment to be Owned by Himself.
CHARLIE CHAPLIN, on September 22, completed his
twelfth and final production under the Lone Star
trade-mark, thereby fulfilling his $670,000 contract with the
Mutual Film Corporation.
With the completion of The Adventurer, this being the
title of the latest Mutual-Chaplin special, Mr. Chaplin
starts his affiliations with the First National Exhibitors‘ Circuit,
for which organization he will produce eight pictures
during the next eighteen months. (...)
Plans for the Chaplin plant are now in the hands of the
architect, and they call for a studio which will be second
to none. Extreme attention will be given the stage, which will
be of unusual seize, and a greatly improved diffusing
system, which has been given careful study by Mr.Chaplin,
will be installed, being of such nature as to meet
all climatic conditions without the use of a glass covering.
