HALLOWEEN MOVIES / DAISY DOODAD'S DIAL (1914)

Here are a few frame grabs from a short film I just discovered on David Cairns' site: "Shadowplay" (link on my right sidebar). Dial is English slang for face.


The face belongs to Florence Turner, an American actress who, at the peak of her popularity, moved to England.


If I'm not mistaken, Turner wrote and directed the film.


I read that she got good reviews for a 1911 film called "Jealousy" where she was the sole actor, and appeared in every scene. The film is sadly lost now.



And here's the entire short.
