& The Program in Detail
Now, as to comedies, I think the one essential is that
they be clean. Unless a comedy shows up well
under this test, it can never get on any screen for which I make
the selections. I have no impossible standards
here and when I see my audience go into convulsions of laughter over ,slap stick‘ and ,rough house‘ screen farce,
I do not assume to correct their taste, but am glad to see
them laugh. After all, that is the one object of the
comedy and if it can be obtained without any offence to decency, nothing more ought to be asked. Here, too, the
complexion of your audience, its degree of culture and
refinement, its place in the social scale, etc.,
ought to have great weight.
