Abstract
NOW that the plump motion picture prodigy has been given a voice and one has heard him utter words, sometimes a trifle too sonorous, it remains for the child to be taught to talk intelligently, or in a less recitational tone than has been the case so far with most dialogue films. The fact that the shadow is heard means that more and more will be expected from the screen, but, so far, in a number of instances the vocal end has weakened the acting, for the players in their anxiety to reach the microphone have forgotten that words arc not enough; that they must be accompanied by facial expressions and gestures.
