Summary
Douglas Fairbanks came from Broadway to the movies in 1915 when high salaries were luring well-known stage actors to the new feature-length pictures. Although most of these performers failed to 'register' on camera and returned to New York, Fairbanks quickly became a supernova. His energetic, optimistic character, his ingratiating smile, his graceful, acrobatic stunts (he did his own), clever writing, and accomplished staging rapidly made Fairbanks one of the most admired stars in the world. He produced 3 films for Artcraft/Famous Players-Lasky Corp., including Wild and Woolly (1917), starring Fairbanks, Eileen Percy, and Calvert Carter. Fairbanks is an Easterner who moves to a Western town to fulfill his fantasy of becoming a Wild West tough guy.
