William Joseph Lincoln (1870 – August 18, 1917) was an Australian playwright, theatre manager, film director and screenwriter in the silent era.[1] He produced, directed and/or wrote 23 films between 1911 and 1916.

One obituary called him "undoubtedly the pioneer of the Australian picture-producing industry."[2]

Film historians Graham Shirley and Brian Adams wrote that Lincoln's films "were more like stage tableaux than films. However, with the right ingredients at their disposal the best of Lincoln's early productions were well-received".[3]

Early Life and Career

Lincoln was born in Melbourne, the only son of Thomas and Esther Lincoln, and was brought up in St Kilda. [4]

Playwright

He wrote the play The Bush King which debuted in London in 1893 and in Melbourne in 1894.[5] This play would later be rewritten by Alfred Dampier, a version which premiered in 1901 and became very successful over the following decade, being adapted into the popular film Captain Midnight, the Bush King (1911).

He wrote another play The Power of Wealth (1900) which was also performed by Dampier.

Manager

Lincoln first became involved with the film industry for J.C Williamson, managing his Anglo-American Bio-Tableau in 1904.[6]

He then managed the Australasian tour of the Gaiety Company for Williamson. While doing this he received notice to meet up with Clement Mason who had film of the Russo-Japanese War. Lincoln toured with this and some other films throughout Western Australia. It was a massive success with the public.[7][8]

According to Lincoln's obituary "He worked with Meynell, Gunn and Clarke in their early days" (the Meynell and Gunn Dramatic Company).[2] He did this from 1906 to 1909. In 1907 Harold Bessett went bankrupt. He blamed Lincoln, his manager, but Lincoln denied this.[9] He then became the theatrical manager of Miss Lancashire Ltd which toured Australia; this production starred Florence Baines. Lincoln also worked as an advertising copywriter for The Bulletin and continued to write plays, including a pantomime version of Red Riding Hood.[10]

According to one newspaper report he produced and directed the feature film The Story of the Kelly Gang (1907)[11] but this seems doubtful. Lincoln himself attributed the direction to Sam Crews.[12]

In 1909 he became manager of the Paradise of Living Pictures movie theatre in St Kilda, Melbourne, Victoria, one of the earliest moving picture palaces in Melbourne. He had begun to write and direct films for show in the theatre.[13][14]

Filmmaker

Amalgamated Pictures

Lincoln made his film debut as director and writer with It Is Never Too Late to Mend (1911), based on a popular play and novel, for the Tait brothers. They appointed him director of their new company, Amalgamated Pictures, for whom he made nine films over the next year most based on play adaptations of a novel: The Mystery of a Hansom Cab (1911), The Luck of Roaring Camp (1911), Called Back (1911), The Lost Chord (1911), The Bells (1911), The Double Event (1911), After Sundown (1911) (based on Lincolns own play, but the film was not commercially released), Breaking the News (1911) and Rip Van Winkle (1912).[15] During this time Lincoln continued to manage the Paradise Gardens.

In later writing about these films Lincoln said "I am... in a somewhat awkward position in appraising their merits, but in justice to those who assisted in these productions, I may say that their work under discouraging conditions, Is entitled to the highest commendation."[12]

A writer said of It Is Never Too Late to Mend, Mystery of the Hansom Cab and Called Back that "They were very cheaply produced (the cost per film was between £300 and £400), and Johnson and Gibson must have done well out of them, although they were not first-class. How could they be?"[16]

The Taits withdrew from film production around 1912 to focus on importing and distributing overseas films, which was cheaper than making local movies. In 1912 Lincoln became publicity manager of Amalgamated. The following year he bought out Amalgamated Picture's interest in the "Paradise" theatre.[17][18]

Lincoln-Cass Film Company

In 1913 Lincoln partnered with Godfrey Cass to make films as the Lincoln-Cass Film Company.[19] The company survived for only one year, but in that time it made eight films, most of which Lincoln directed. These were The Sick Stockrider (1913), based on the poem by Adam Lindsay Gordon, The Remittance Man, Transported, The Road to Ruin (1913), The Crisis (1913), and The Reprieve (1913).[20]

J.C. Williamson Ltd

Lincoln later worked for J.C. Williamson Ltd when they moved into film production.[21]

Lincoln wrote the scripts for Within Our Gates (1915), directed by Frank Harvey, and Within the Law (1916), directed by Monte Luke. He was originally supposed to direct as well but by this stage his alcoholism had gotten out of control, causing him to be removed as director of Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford (1916); actor Fred Niblo took over the job, launching Niblo's considerable career as director. Niblo directed Officer 666 for Williamson's with Lincoln working as writer.[22]

In October 1915 it was announced that Lincoln "has been in poor health lately, and has had to take things quietly. He is contemplating spending a few weeks at one of the mountain resorts, and while there will looks over, manuscripts of some big film, factories which are under consideration for future production."[23]

Lincoln recovered sufficiently to write and direct Nurse Cavell (1916) and La Revanche (196).

Later years

Lincoln later formed Lincoln-Barnes Productions in partnership with G.H. Barnes, directing The Life's Romance of Adam Lindsay Gordon (1916). The shoot was not easy and Lincoln was unwell during filming. However Cinema Papers later wrote "Lincoln was a talented director and this film shows the maturity he had reached in film production" adding that the movie "has a haunting beauty. The long camera shots, interior lighting and sophisticated direction mark him as a particularly sensitive and advanced director for that time."[24]

Lincoln and Barnes would up in litigation against Amalgamated Pictures in 1917.[25]

Lincoln's drinking got worse and he died in Sydney on 18 August 1917.[26][27]

At the time of his death he was working on an adaptation of the stage play The Worst Woman in London called The Worst Woman in Sydney. It was unclear if this was a play or a film script.[28]

An obituary described him as:

One of the stoutest champions of Australian moving picture production. Although his sanguine views of the business as a profitable investment were not shared by all his friends, it was conceded by everyone who kn6w him, that he had the courage of his convictions. In the early years of moving picture development, as a medium for dramatic expression, Mr. Lincoln achieved success as a maker of photodramas. Undaunted by the-fact that studio facilities were confined to improvisations of one sort and another, that practical experience was only to be acquired by spending money and risking failure, he stuck to his work, and secured results that, were the more to be commended in that they were obtained under such' discouraging conditions. That Australia could not keep pace in the general upward trend in production, was not the fault of Lincoln and others who strove to establish the industry here.[29]

Lincoln's Bulletin obituary said his best films were The Sick Stockrider, After Sundown, Le Revanche, The Bells and Adam Lindsay Gordon.[2]

Personal life

Lincoln married Pearl Ireland (d. 4 February 1943[30]) in 1896 - they were described as "a runaway match".[31] They had one child, a daughter Marguerite (1897–1972).[32]
