LOSE IN ENGLAND
British Footlight Favorites Taking
Part in Silent Drama English
Producers Making Gains.
LONDON, Feb. 24. In view of the
present slump in the American film
industry, and according to informa
tion elicited from the principal pro
ducers here, it looks as though
Aesop's race between the tortoise and
the hare might be re-enacted In film
land. England is creeping up quite slowly
but surely and the biggest and best
known producers here are well satis
fied with the progress they are mak
ing. So far they have felt nothing
of that slump which is affecting the
American film industry.
During the war there was very lit
tle time for film production and the
number of people employed waa neg
ligible, but recently these numbers
have been greatly Increased and
many British footlight favorites have
taken up film work.
New cinema houses are springing
up all over the British Isles and their
programmes for the year include
anything between 60 and 80 per cent
of home-manufactured photo plays.
Gradually the British public Is being
weaned away from the American
film. The public is showing a pref
erence for those films which depict
English ideas and English sentiment.
