Their job was to see if somehow or other they could not make it a better thing than it was. On its mechani- cal side it was as nearly perfect as they could imagine it to be, but practically no attention had been paid to the intellectual side. The great crime of the cinema was that it was destroying the im- agination of the people who were going to see it. Everything was arranged so that there was no need for the spectator to think for himself. It insisted on detail and thereby stiled imagination.
