responsible for the filming of “The
King of Kings,” Cecil B. De Mille’s
led the production of “The Godless
Girl,” Mr. De Mille’s first direc
torial effort since he filmed “The
King of Kings” in 1927, which will
be the attraction at the Capitol
tomorrow for four days.
Frank Urson, assistant to De
Mille on many of the latter’s out
standing features, assisted the di
rector on "The Godless Girl,” hav
ing just completed “Chicago,”
which he directed for De Mille.
Peverell Marcey, who photograph
ed “The King of Kings,” was en
trusted with the photography of
“The Godless Girl.” The import
ant work of cutting was done by
Anne Bauchens, who edited the
film on every Cecil B. De Mille
production during the past ten
years, while Roy Burns, who was
responsible for the thousands oi
properties used in “The King of
Kings,” was in charge of properties
for “The Godless Girl.”
This picture, like “The King of
Kings,” was written and scenarized
by Jeanie Macpherson, who wrote
“The Ten Commandments,” “Joan
the Woman” and numerous other
Cecil M. De Mille productions.
Lina Basquette was selected for the
title role, while George Duryea,
Nooah Beery, Marie Prevo6t and
Eddie Quillan have important roles
in this drama of youth.
