clude American Madness" and Ann
Carver's Profession" He is now evolv-
ing a story for Grace Moore.
Wrote for Grace Moore.
For the Grace Moore picture,
started with the star in mind, writing
the story so that it would be possible
to weave seven or eight songs into 1t
without disrupting continuity.
When changing story into screen
play, however, usually do not write
with any actor or actress In mind, un-
less the part Is suitable for only one
particular person, as happened to be
the case with "Mr. Deeds Goes to
Town" I wrote it hoping Gary,
Cooper would play the leading role.
1T happened One Night" is another
exception and was written for Robert
Montgomery. Montgomery was not
available and the studio sent us Clark
Gable in his stead. 1t Is interesting
to note, in view Of the pictures sue
cess, that neither Gable nor Claudette
Colbert was enthusiastic over the pic
ture.
The general custom, when adapting
an original, is to use as little of the
book as possible and in no way to con-
suit the author. With Lost Horizon"
which I consider the best scenario I've
written to date the author, James Hill
ton happened to be in Hollywood, and
the studio asked him to read my script
and pass opinion. He was gratifyingly
pleased. I used more of the original
material for this picture than for any
other.
Lost Horizon" was a tremendously
exciting subject and completely differ
ent from everything else have writ
ten. The story fluctuates up and down
emotionally instead Of continuing up
wards until reaching one big climax.
II it is success. you can cancel
everything I've said above on how to
write a scenario.

Most playwrightS imported to Holly
wood find photography a handicap
to screen writing. They are accus-
toned to the confined space between
two proscenium arches. But the cam
era is actually a great help. The story
should be viSualized as something that
moves, and there is naturally much
wider, more imaginative scope than
on the stage or between the covers
of novel.
There are two distinct methods for
adapting an original story for the
screen and in writing an original for
some one else to adapt.
