  • "Douglas Fairbanks came from Broadway to the movies in 1915 when high salaries were luring well-known stage actors to the new feature-length pictures. Although most of these performers failed to 'register' on camera and returned to New York, Fairbanks quickly became a supernova. His energetic, optimistic character, his ingratiating smile, his graceful, acrobatic stunts (he did his own), clever writing, and accomplished staging rapidly made Fairbanks one of the most admired stars in the world. His Picture in the Papers (1916), a modern-dress comedy, was directed by John Emerson and written by Emerson and Anita Loos; it stars Fairbanks, Clarence Handyside, and Rene Boucicault. Fairbanks pursues his romantic love while getting involved with a gang of criminals and a train chase."
