“TILLIE’S PUNCTURED ROMANCE”
GREAT COMEDY FILM Conrad wrote his first novel while captain of a ship sailing the seas, Julius Caesar turned out his commentaries virtually in the saddle while campaigning against the Gauls, and Edward Sutherland and Monte Brice, Paramount Pictures director and author, write their best motion picture scenarios while they themselves are in motion. Sutherland and Brice set out for Europe with the intention of writing the motion picture version of “Tillie’s Punctured Romance,” en route. The comedy production brothers, A! and Charles Christie, who are producing the new picture, accompanied them on the trip . The party returned to Hollywood in September and immediately began the filming of the picture. Writing while in motion, already has been tried out by Sutherland and Brice, and proved successful. They wrote the rollicking “We’re In The Navy Now” in a Pullman drawing-room between New York and Los Angeles, and Brice alone wrote, “Firemen, Save My Child” on a sea-going yacht.
