- Résumé : "The Moving Picture Girls in War Plays" by Laura Lee Hope follows the exciting journey of Ruth and Alice DeVere, two sisters who are prominent figures in the world of silent films. The narrative unfolds as they join a film company to produce a series of war-themed plays at Oak Farm, a picturesque location in New Jersey. The story begins with the sisters preparing for their roles, packing their belongings, and dealing with the challenges of the film industry, such as retakes and the intricacies of acting without dialogue. As they arrive at Oak Farm, they are greeted by the Apgar family, who own the farm and have previously hosted the film company. The sisters, along with their father, Mr. DeVere, and other members of the company, including the comedic Mr. Switzer and the ambitious Mr. Bunn, engage in rehearsals and filming. The narrative highlights the complexities of producing war scenes, including the coordination of extras, horses, and props. Ruth and Alice are cast in significant roles, with Ruth portraying a Union nurse and Alice a Confederate spy, leading to dramatic and emotional scenes that test their acting skills. The story also introduces new characters, such as the daring rider Miss Brown, who impresses the sisters with her equestrian skills. Throughout the novel, the sisters navigate the challenges of the film industry, the dynamics of their roles, and the camaraderie among the cast, all set against the backdrop of the silent film era's burgeoning popularity.
