But Was Rather Too Subtle For General Public. Famous players of various types, singers even and grand opera stars, have from time to time been added to the list of moving picture actors, but a significant bit of news has now come to hand which tells of the decision of a very famous dancer to join the ranks of the photo-players. She is none other than Rita Sacchetto, who a few years ago was setting all Europe, and the New York publie as well, by the ears because of her slim grace and youthful sprightliness. She was for a few snort weeks one of the most interesting figures on the Metropolitan stage, an Interpreter of the greatest charm and distinction, whose poetic and carefully studied dances were so unusual and different to win for her almost universal recognition among the few.

Too Subtle For General Public. She was, however, a little too subtle and raffinee for the general public, so that, like 80 many things that one sees in the kaleidoscopic season in Manhattan, she was what may be termed an artistic though not a popular success. All this took place at a time when New York was in the throes of the dancing revival and new interpreters were welcomed always, but so different and elevated was the particular art of the Sacchetto that the little coterie who discovered her regarded her as the most important "find" of the moment. To Play Now For Films. The artist colony was at her feet, although she had no general public.

Then suddenly she vanished. One had almost forgotten her name until now comes the announcement that she is to play a leading role in "During the Plague" for the Great Northern Film Company. Rita Sacchetto's father was a Venetian, her mother an Austrian. Her name and type declare her to be all Italian, however, although she was brought up in Munich, where her brother is a recognized painter, and German is her "mother tongue." She converses fluently in French and Italian and probably by this time in English, although one recalls that at the "Twelfth Night" festivities of the MacDowell Club, where she was dancing New York, she was only able to converse in foreign languages. Made Her Debut In Munich.

When she was 22 and that was only a few years ago she made her professional debut as a dancer at the Kunstlerhaus, the gorgeous home of the Artists' Club in Munich. Afterward she danced in Vienna, Budapest, Berlin, Dresden, Cologne and Stuttgart, but always with painters and artists as the nucleus of her audience, although both titled and royal patronage has been hers. The German critics declared her a "lyric-dramatic prima donna without She might be called a mute actress rather than a traditional pantomimist. Her great. success was undoubtedly due, as one writer at the that her German, Italian, Spanish, Oriental or old French dances were all equally interesting and unusual.

All this "equipment" she is bring ing with her to her Interpretation of the heroine of "During the so that she could be peculiarly fitted for this new departure. One hopes when this film is finished that it will be shown in Baltimore, should be unusually worth while, for the Sacchetto is accustomed to act in the silent drama, although hitherto these dramas have always been those of her own imaginings. It will be doubly Interesting to see her of another's see. nario, interpretation Strange Others Have Not Done It. The moving picture opens a new field of endeavor for interpretative dancers.

It is rather curious, when one stops to think of it, that various celebrated dancers, such 88 Genee, Otero, Carmencita, Hoffmann. Polaire and the rest, have not thought of dancing "for the sereen." This kind of thing. too, might be a help to the unfortunate producers who are so hard put to it to find new scenarios. The constantly increasing number of theatres, and as a natural outcome the even more insistent demand for new plots, is presenting itself as a very serious problem at this particular time. The lack of new themes for photoplays is perhaps the real reason that one sees so many "bills" of uneven value and signifleance at the lower priced houses.

It also explains the raison d'etre of the so-called "feature anch as the "Tess" photo play that was shown here last week. With famous dancers in the field a new kind of drama might be devised that would tide over the present dearth of new plots and the scenario writers all imaginative fillip that should bring some excellent results.
