CAPRA FRANK: (1897-1991) Italian-born American film director, Academy Award winner. An early T.L.S., Frank R. Capra, one page, 4to, Hollywood, California, 20th September 1928, to Whitney Williams, on the printed stationery of Columbia Pictures Corporation. Capra enthusiastically announces 'Success! I have always looked forward to a review on one of my pictures which wasn't qualified by ''ifs'' and ''buts''; and your review of ''Submarine'' fulfills (sic) my dreams' and continues 'How can I thank you enough? I know that you wouldn't have spoken so well of ''Submarine'' unless you felt that way about it - ahem - so it becomes doubly difficult for me to offer my gratitude. Please stop out at the studio soon so I can thank you orally, liquidly, or edibly. At best my words of gratitude would be insufficient, but be assured that the spirit is there. My only fear is that ''Submarine'' will be awfully hard to top - if it's as good as you say it is'. Some light staining, only very slightly affecting the signature, about VG Submarine (1928) is a silent drama film directed by Capra and starring Jack Holt and Dorothy Revier. It was the director's first attempt to make an ''A-picture'' and the film was released with a synchronised music score and sound effects.
