	WKE Notes, Theodore Huff Memorial Film Society 11/27/56
		Ince's stature has always been infinitely less, but his importance - as a showman and an efficient organiser rather than a creative craftsman - is sometimes minimised in favor of exaggerated praise heaped on his films themselves.
		Ince went on to bigger, longer and lesser pictures; Griffith matured to bigger, longer, and greater pictures.
		In their unglamorous backgrounds – and in the realistic flavor of old Inceville – Ince's westerns do have a certain documentary aspect in their depiction of an old West that, after all, was not so many years away at the time.
