    although most of the case studies discussed in Hindson’s book also appear in film – Yvette Guilbert, Loı¨e Fuller, Letty Lind, Cissie Loftus, and Maud Allan were all involved in the nascent industry – Hindson makes no mention of this.

Her features played very, very slightly. And in truth, this may have been one of the reasons of her great success.
