OBLIGING PLAYER OBEYS “INTERLOCK!”
Everything was ready for the climax in the “Doctor’s Secret.” John Loder, the young British leading man, was preparing for the final embrace.
“Interlock,” came the command from William C. De Mille.
Tenderly but firmly Loder held Ruth Chatterton in a tight embrace and began his last love speech in the talking movie. “Just a minute,” interrupted De Mille, “we’re not quite ready yet.” Loder, puzzled, turned to the director, who explained. “Interlock,” he said, “doesn’t mean what you think. It’s just a signal to camera men to synchronise their cameras with the recording apparatus upstairs.”
