    2 Silent Pictures Silent pictures. The Great Marion Davies Murder. An opening at the Cosmopolitan Theatre. Marion moves to California. Terrified by a lion. A party for the King of Siam. Mr. Hearst puts all his eggs in one basket. MD: I couldn’t act, but the idea of silent pictures appealed to me, because I couldn’t talk either. Silent pictures were right up my alley, and that’s how I got all the bad notices, except for the one that Louella Parsons wrote [in 1922]. She was working on the [New York] Morning Telegraph, and W.R. apparently read her review. Everybody else said, “Stinking.” But Louella said, “Give the girl a chance.” W.R. immediately hired her for the New York American, because of that one review. TC: A possible conflation here: Marion’s “Stinking” may allude to Cecilia of the Pink Roses (1918) whereas Louella’s words refer more directly to When Knighthood Was in Flower (1922). Miss Parsons wasn’t hired by W.R. until 1923. See George Eells, Hedda and Louella, p. 91; see also Samantha Barbas, The First Lady of Hollywood, pp. 80-85. MD: W.R. always said to me, “Never read any bad reviews about yourself. Read only the good ones.” Of course I thought, What if there are no good ones? Then I’m really in the dumps. I’d rather read the bad ones than the good ones anyway, because at least there are more of them. And you might find out what’s wrong. If they say this scene or that scene is not good enough, or if the comedy is lacking, maybe you can perk it up.
