[on the performance of
Gabrielle Réjane in
Miarka, the Child of the Bear (1920)] To the screen Réjane gave her entire faith, her courage, her passion for truth, for intensity, for life; and proved, like the great artist she was, how she could translate a dream into a reality - this beloved, this simple Réjane, in whom was incarnate the very soul of Paris, of that Paris which is the smile of the universe.
