Excerpt from The Soul of the Moving Picture
The moving picture is an art based on feeling, and not on thought. It has to do with the emo tions rather than with the intellect. The man who goes to the moving picture wants to experience certain incidents, not by thinking about them, but by feeling them. Just as music arouses the feel ings through tones, just so does the moving pic ture attempt to solve, not the riddle of the human brain, but of the human soul. A moving picture is a feeling expressed through gestures.
