On one journey, when filming the carrying of munitions by mule-back as that was the only method by which our advanced field-guns could be supplied while they were being loaded at a dump near Wood, the mud was well above the mules' knees, and, in another instance, it was actually touching their bellies.
Bill, because he was a woodsman first, last, and always, slipped additional shells into Harold's rifle; then walked over to the bear. He gazed down at its filming eyes. "Bear's all dead," he answered cheerfully. And Virginia's heart raced and thrilled, and a delicious exaltation swept through her, when she glanced down at this woodsman's hands.
Doubt and suspicion, however, enthralled her mind. She was both curious and anxious. Ruth had no particular desire to read the manuscripts. In any case she did not presume Mr. Hammond desired her advice about selecting a script for filming. She skimmed through the first story. It had not a thing in it that would suggest in the faintest way any familiarity of the author with her own lost scenario.
"And I would give you the filming of my next play for nothing," Elizabeth ventured, "if either of those two men could possibly have been an art teacher.... Can I have a little more oil with my salad, please, steward, and I should like some French white wine." Mr. Raymond Greene took what appeared to be a positive disappointment very good-naturedly.
But it was not until the last week of the filming of Let's get a Husband that Harrietta came to her and said passionately: "I do! I do!" "Do what?" Irish Mary asked, blankly. "Do want to break my contract. You said I could after this picture." "Sure you can. They hired you because I put Lyddy up to askin' them to. I'd thought you'd be pleased for the big money an' all. There's no pleasin' some."
He had choked love, strangled it, starved it for sake of friendship; and, sitting there staring abstractedly into the filming coals, he wondered if he had done wrong; if those two were right, and love was worth fighting for. The man who fought the hardest, he felt, would in this case win that for which he fought.
The casualties were very slight. For fully an hour I stood there filming this wonderful scene, and throughout all the inferno, neither I nor my machine was touched. A fragment of shrapnel touched my tripod, taking a small piece out of the leg. That was all! Shortly after seven o'clock the attack subsided, and as my film had all been used up, I packed and returned to my shelter.
The moving picture business of taking films depended on daylight for its success. But when they were not filming peaceful scenes in and about the trenches the boys were getting views of tanks, of men drilling, of their games and sports, and now they were to get some pictures of the meals.
Often in a studio, even, the director will be notional "temperamental," he might call it and let a day go by, and again the glare of the powerful lights may so affect the eyes of the players that they have to rest, and so time is lost in that way. But the time lost in a studio is as nothing compared to the time lost in filming the big outdoor scenes.
"Steady there!" he called, at a certain point. "Better toss over your anchor, and stay there a while. I want a long film of this scene." "All right," agreed Paul, and with a splash the little anchor went over the side. The boat swung around and then became stationary. Russ was grinding away at the camera when, suddenly, the boat he was filming, with its occupants, began moving up stream.
