[Jean of the Lazy A by B. M. Bower]@TWC D-Link bookJean of the Lazy A CHAPTER XI 19/24
"Only, it does look so simple!" She rested her elbows on her knees again, dropped her chin into her palms, and concentrated her mind upon the subject of picture-plays in the making. Muriel recovered her composure, stood beside Gil Huntley at the horse's head just outside the range of the camera, waited for the word of command from Burns, and rushed into the saddle scene.
Burns shouted "Sob!" and Muriel sobbed with her face toward the camera.
Burns commanded her to pick up the saddle, and Muriel picked up the saddle and flung it spitefully upon the back of the sorrel. "Oh, you forgot the blanket!" exclaimed Jean, and stopped herself with her hand over her too-impulsive mouth, just as Burns stopped the camera. The director bowed his head and shook it twice slowly and with much meaning.
He did not say anything at all; no one said anything.
Gil Huntley looked at Jean and tried to catch her eye, so that he might give her some greeting, or at least a glance of understanding.
