1t is true that people in Hollywood act as
people do nowhere else in the world. l am
tired of reading fan-magazine twitters to the
effect that Hollywood folks are "just plain
home people like you and me-" They are not.
They could not have made the Hollywood
grade unless they had been able to dramatize

the poor writer and director stared at each

Another dreamer who clings to an inner
vision of herself is Mae West. Miss West
sedulously believes that she is one of the great
authorities on what screen executives like to
call "sophistication," while all Hollywood
knows her private life is beyond reproach.
