The Sort of Film We'll Have for Years, by Bairnsfather

The Sort of Film We'll Have for Years How Dick Manvers Got His Star Every familiar feature of the Film is happily caricatured by Captain Bairnsfather in his amusing page of pictures. The hero, the heroine (with smile), the villain, the heavy father, all of the most approved pattern - everything down to the meticulous inaccuracy characteristic of the American film in matters of detail, is shown with the good-natured sarcasm befitting a master of satire as well as of humour, while the story tells itself with breathless enthusiasm. A cartoon sequence by Captain Bruce Bairnsfather in The Bystander Christmas Number, 1916
