“Wanted—A Master”
Showing At Georgia
Theater 3 Days
«Wanted—A Master,” new show
ing at the Georgia theater, is the
first movie ever photographed by
amateurs that reached Hollywood
and theaters throughout the na
tion. The featured actor is Kiwi,
the dog with @ real “pupsonality.”
The picture was first made by
Arthur Ornitz and Gunther von
Fritsch, whose home-made movie
shot with a 16 mm. camera, caught
the eye of Pete Smith, M-G-M
commentator.
And now Liberty Magazine
opens wide the gates of Hollywood
in announcing the Liberty-Pete
Smith Amateur Movie contest.
This contest is being conducted
in association with Metro-Gold
wyn-Mayer studios and any per
son is eligible to compete for
SI,OOO in prizes and success in
Hollywood. \
In addition to the film awards,
M-G-M is prepared to offer con
tracts for at least three kinds of
talent which may be unearthed
as a result of the contest. Aec
cording to the announcement, each
entry is to be carefully serutinized
for potential directorial talent, for
amateurs who demonstrate origi
nality in story treatment and for
persons appearing in story treat
ment who demonstrate originality
and express acting talent or
screen personality .
This is the most talked about
short of the year and is at last
something new for the movies.
The dog—from wags to riches.
That in a nutshell, is the success
story of Hollywood’s newest screen
star. This dog and his acting as
well as the photographic work is
responsible for these two boys
getting to Hollywood.
