Summary

The public that patronizes the better class of photoplay houses refuses to tolerate the speculate of sitting through the average vaudeville chaser in order to see a good photoplay. With the Kalem Company spend $100,000 on one photoplay, and $50,000 for several, and with the Edison and Vitagraph companies employing players and authors of equal rank to those engaged for Broadway productions, the day cannot be far off when the cheap and inadequately constructed photo-play houses must pass for all time. – 'The Moving Picture Theatre of Tomorrow,' Robert Garu in National Magazine for May
