Maugham & Haxton arrived in Hollywood towards the end of 1920 but Maugham did not find the set-up or the remuneration satisfactory. He continued on a few occasions to write for the screen but never felt he mastered the technique although his own works have been filmed more than any other author writing in English. Eventually Maugham declared he would not right for the pictures again though a disastrous attempt was made for David O.Selznick Productions in 1944 The Hour Before the Dawn cementing the author`s opinion that it was not the medium for him. Photographs of Gerald Haxton are uncommon.(4)
