Wow, this is unbelievably fascinating.
"During that speech one of the seventeen, director Marshall (Mickey) Neilan, got up and left, followed by his wife and star, Blanche Sweet, and the cast and crew of Tess of the D’Urbervilles. The headstrong Neilan later explained that he already had sacrificed a half-day’s shooting for the event and that Mayer’s display was “taking too goddamn long.”" lmao
