"They've often called the movies 'the silent

the making of a movie.
"It's in the making of a 'Talkie' that studio
silence is required. Np one is allowed to make
any noise, but the players. For the slightest
sound in the studio registers on the sensitive
recording mechanism; And an uninvited
cough s a calamity. 0
