Beban Adds an Unexpected
Touch of True Realism

George Beban, the famous Italian
character actor, who will be seen at
the Muse in his latest production, "A
Roadside lmpressario," has hidden
passion that was not discovered until
the filming Of this story, at the Pallas
studio. This passion is for breaking
dishes.
One Of the incidents Of the story is
where Mr.. Beban is working as a
helper in a restaurant in order to raise
money to get Bruno, his bear, out OF
Jail. Beban finds an important paper
and certain members of his company
try to get it away from him. Armed
with cleaver and pan full OF hot
soup he keeps them at bay. This
scene takes place near one OF the
racks in which the hundreds OF clean
dishes were stacked and tipping the
rack over had nothing to do with the
story. Several people noticed during
rehearsal that Mr Bebatl looked at
this rack with hungry eyes, but
thought nothing Of it, and as the
dishes were all borrowed from local
restaurant, it was supposed the star
would do no damage; but while the
scene was, being photographed Mr.
Beban managed to jump around in
such a way as to tip over the entire
rack containing the dishes. As soon
as he had finished the scene, he
jumped up and down. and said: by

throw his head back and knock you
over the other end OF himself if you

throws you over his head. Or, while
in the air, he humps his body up round
and rolls from side TO side with the
most awful 'sea-sicky' motion. You
might hang on if you could grip the
pommel of the saddle like grim death
