„Get me an overcoat and I‘ll do the scene with Norma!“

Editorial content. „Extra – Extra

      One day when Henry King was directing a scene,

several extras were instructed to stand in doorways and peer

out at Miss Talmadge, in the role of a girl of the streets,

as she passed. King wanted a little man in a big coat for one

of the close-ups. Charlie Chaplin, who happened to be

visiting the set, was asked by Henry King how he would like

to make $7.50 as an extra.

      Impulsively Chaplin interrupted the general laughter

by exclaiming, ,Certainly! Get me an overcoat and I‘ll do the

scene with Norma!‘“
