But incidentally there were to be motion pictures made to fit good music.
Neither music nor films have as yet shaken the world. I liked this Rochester idea.
I felt that once it was started the films would take their proper place and dominate the project, disinterested non-commercial films to be classed with the dramas so well stimulated by the great drama department under Professor Baker of Harvard. As I look back over this history I see that the printed page had counted too much, and the real forces of the visible arts in America had not been definitely enlisted.
They should take the lead.
I would suggest as the three people to interview first on building any Art Museum Photoplay project: Victor Freeburg, with his long experience of teaching the subject in Columbia, and John Emerson and Anita Loos, who are as brainy as people dare to be and still remain in the department store film business.
