Summary "The Moving Picture Girls at Rocky Ranch" by Laura Lee Hope is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows Ruth and Alice DeVere, two sisters who are part of a moving picture company, as they embark on an adventurous journey to the West. Faced with challenges including a rival film company and the excitement of filming in a Western setting, the narrative explores themes of ambition and creativity within the realm of early cinema. At the start of the book, Ruth and Alice are preparing to go to their film studio in New York. Through their banter, we learn more about their personalities, with Alice being more spirited and adventurous, while Ruth tends to be more practical and cautious. The opening sets the stage for their experiences in the film industry, foreshadowing the troubles with a rival company aiming to steal their ideas. As they venture into their moving picture work, capturing moments both dramatic and humorous, they soon find themselves amidst unexpected twists, including the encounter with an intruding spy from a competing film outfit. The beginning establishes a lively and engaging atmosphere, drawing readers into the world of these aspiring actresses and their adventures in filmmaking.
