Scholarly Significance
-
This clipping shows how relevant Fairbanks was. His name as large as the title. Above the title. He is more important and what draws crowds to watch the film.
The detailing around the clipping is like a cinema screen. The box-like appearance is connoting to the reader what its like going to see a feature-length film. Hoping positive connotations come from experiences at the cinema therefore they may go.
Its exclusivity is almost an echelon for the public to view Fairbanks as if a work of art.
