Sho was born to be looked at, yet in person she Is as completely frank and unconscious as if she never had detected a seeing eye. For the screen no quality, aside from sheer dramatic ability itself, is more valuable than this. The moment the screen actor Is conscious of the camera the effect of reality is lost. And nothing is so good a preparation as a natural unconsciousness of observation. It is said that the stare of tha camera is harder to endure than that of a thousand eyes.
