in 1915, young left vitagraph to become the top name at world film productions, a newly formed company created by lewis j. selznick. she appeared in a number of productions until 1916, when partners pushed selznick out of world film productions and young left with him. that year, she divorced her husband, and selznick formed the clara kimball young film company, devoted entirely to her films. young' s popularity began to diminish in the mid - 1920s, which seems to have coincided with her marriage to harry garson, her former agent, who became the producer and director of her films. although she appeared in several more movies, they were of lesser quality, and, with her popularity severely waning, young retired from films for a time, reverting to vaudeville .
( 1914) (davis 420). in 1914, the youngs left vitagraph to work for producer lewis j. selznick (“world film in merger” 7). young made several films released between november 1914 and december 1916 that were produced and / or distributed by world film corporation, founded by lewis j. selznick, arthur spiegel (of mail order fame), wall street financier moritz rosenthal, and lee shubert (lewis 39) .

born in chicago, illinois, in 1890, the daughter of a stagehand and an actress, clara kimball young made her stage debut at age three. she became a skilled actress in vaudeville productions and stock and then began her association with the film company vitagraph in 1909. at this period, she was married to james young, an actor and director she had met in salt lake city stock. under his tutelage, she quickly became a polished performer for vitagraph, maintaining a hectic film schedule there. although she appeared in a few comedies, she was often typecast in matronly roles. in 1914, a prominent fan magazine named her the most popular screen actress in america .
the picture version adheres closely to the stage drama. a regrettable number of the skillful touches by which the author made clear the acts of his characters have been left out, but enough of the original material remains to hold the interest at all times, and to point the moral. albert capellani' s direction is excellent throughout, and clara kimball young succeeds admirably in indicating the moods of laura murdock. joseph kilgour is seen in his original character of the broker - - a flawless piece of work, rockcliffe fellows as john madison, louise bates as elfie st. clair, frank kingdon as burgess and walter mcelweas as jerry contribute superior quality impersonations .

you have cast for both theatre and commercials. what are the major differences that actors need to know before walking in the room? np: the first major difference is commercial auditions are always filmed and typically theatre auditions are not. therefore, the actor needs to be aware of the fact that with a theatre audition they need to reach a live audience and with commercials it needs to be more intimate. although both mediums require impeccable timing and rhythm, the difference is in the preparation. when casting for theatre, actors are generally given the material in advance, and for commercials they are not, so actors need to learn to prepare on the spot .
we know that clara kimball young and first husband, actor and director james young, left the stage for the vitagraph in 1912. james young’s agreement with the company stipulated that they were both paid the same salary, which rose quickly from $ 25 to $ 1, 000 a week as clara kimball young’s popularity soared, especially after her appearance in the five - reel feature

speaking to looks, can you talk about headshots? what makes the perfect shot, especially in the film / commercial world? do you want 3 / 4 shots and full - length pics aside from a regular headshot? np: every casting director has their preference. i' m fairly flexible when it comes to the type of photo, as long as it speaks to me in some way. something about it needs to pique my interest enough to want to call in someone for an audition or meeting. the other important thing about headshots that i tell young performers is simple; it should look like you! talk about the
it
factor. how do you know someone' s
got it
? what are the clues? np: a lot has been said about the
it
factor, but there' s a reason it' s called that. it' s just

it' s indescribable, hard to define. casting directors have a natural instinct to recognize
it .

talk about dressing for an audition. how far should one go to

laura murdock is a young actress. her husband, a drunkard, is killed by a fall, laura goes to new york to get an engagement and finds herself blocked at every turn by the petty jealousies and politics of the profession. willard brockton, a wealthy banker, has been asked a production and has refused. he meets laura and becomes interested, furnishes the producer with money demanding in return that laura be given the best role in the piece .
theodore roosevelt was the first u. s. president to have his career and life chronicled on a large scale by motion picture companies (even though his predecessors, grover cleveland and william mckinley, were the first to be filmed). this presentation features films which record events in roosevelt' s life from the spanish - american war in 1898 to his death in 1919. the majority of films are from the theodore roosevelt association collection, while the remainder are from the paper print collection. besides containing scenes of roosevelt, these films include views of world figures, politicians, monarchs, and friends and family members of roosevelt who influenced his life and the era in which he lived. commemorative events up to 1921 are also included as well as silent documentaries compiled from earlier footage by the theodore roosevelt association between 1919 and 1928 .
another common mistake actors make is to say too much in the room. it' s fine to ask a question or two if it helps, but try and remember that we are usually on a very tight schedule and unless we engage you, less is more. talk about sides — is it better to have them completely memorized, or would you prefer an actor to just be
familiar
with it, so that they are not committed so strongly to one way of thinking / performing? np: i prefer actors be very familiar with them, but not have them completely memorized. i believe fully memorizing the material can lock off the performance to spontaneity, and actors stop listening. there is such a thing as being over prepared .

at 66, the salty - tongued young became a hollywood correspondent for a 1956 tv show hosted by a youthful johnny carson (“clara kimball young, carson correspondent”). the new medium aired silent films, renewing the fame of many former stars, including young. but by then young did not want to talk about silent films. in 1955 she told an interviewer: “i’m living today” (as she raised a toast). “i’m in the rocket ship era. to hell with the past. ” young died in 1960 at the age of 70 (“clara kimball young, pioneer actress, dies”) .
it' s professionally acted by the entire cast (save robert montgomery). beautiful constance bennett makes her character of the dreamy and uncertain girl totally believable: with a restrained, anxious attitude, never totally at ease. (in real life bennett had a somewhat different character !) and anita page as her more earthy sister. clark gable has a small but important role, one of his very first – and he looks quite natural. robert montgomery is not a great actor, and his character in this film is a bit annoying. adolphe menjou comes across as more sympathetic .

do you put more weight on actors who have high - profile representation, agents or managers? np: no. it doesn' t matter who your representatives are; at grey we have strong relationships and enormous respect for all the agents and managers we work with. they really are the unsung heroes of this business and do not always get the credit they deserve. i have met incredible talent from the most powerful agencies to the smallest boutique ones. i call actors with no representation directly all the time. if an actor is talented, it doesn' t matter how i find them, just as long as i do. however, i will admit to being slightly biased towards my fellow new yorkers !

this does not explain why young gave up a namesake company. surely she and garson could have created a new moniker that reflected the appeal of the star, rather than naming it after garson, an unknown. as far as her creative control was concerned, it was not referred to again in the press. furthermore, young’s career began to decline and never recovered. whether it was due to garson’s less able handling of direction and production or the difficulty of prewar stars to reach postwar audiences is unclear. it was probably both .

how do you feel about social media in general? does it help to get actors
out there
and
network
