Editorial content. „Nichols‘ Ideas

      By Danny

      Robert Nichols, poet and artist, visited Hollywood. And

returned to London. And then, through the London

Times. Gave out some ideas. Of what Hollywood and picture

folks were. Mr. Nichols is evidently a highbrow.“ (...)

      „Chaplin Talks

      And then his interview with Chaplin. For he quotes Charlie:

      ,The producers assert the public wants this, that,

or the other – say, battle, murder, and sudden death in evening

dress and smoking jackets. That‘s the ,bunk.‘ The public

doesn‘t know what it wants except that it wants an evening‘s

entertainment. I try to give it that.‘“ (...)

      „People laugh at us, and some of our productions are

dreadful enough, I‘ll admit, but I contend we are

opening people‘s eyes.“ (...)

      The Gold Rush opens Sept. 14, 1925

      at Tivoli, 65-70½ Strand (at John Adams Street), London.
