riding boots, was one of the least
torrid places in Hollywood when we
visited it. Whatever violence was
later to stir the palm fronds and
reverberate among those fiimsy
tropical huts which were all front
and no back was being brewed else
where. Now there was only lam
guor, the calm before the storm,
an interval to be filled with chat
ter of ships architecture, the wealth.
er IN New England, but not of shoes
and sealing wax, nor cabbages and
kings.
Like the true home lover, which
he is, Cagney is proud of his house
out here. 1t is supposed to be the
biggest six-room house in the world,
but the thing Cagney finds most
enhancing about it is that it is
earthquake-proof. We are pretty
dumb about earthquake-pr -proofing,
but from Cagneys description it
seems to be a matter of building
four stone walls, locking the stones
together, and then, within this shell
to build an inner structure entirely
disconnected from the outer walls.
Let the earth jitter-bug as vio-
lently as it will, it can't rock the
Cagneys.
1t gives a man a feeling of con-
fidence.

It seems rather strange to run
across serenity at Warmers where
violence has been so finely realized
through so many films. Just about
the most tranquil place in Holly
wood. however, is the set of Brother
Orchid" There. in the middle of
all that monastic peace, sits Ed
ward G. Robinson. a strange and
happy convert from the storms and
stress Of all those gangster films.
His monks garb fills Robinson with
quiet geniality which makes him
suggest that the set of Brother
Orchid might be a properly tram
quill place to which a critic might
retire from his dizzy rounds of
movie-going
"Permanently?" we ask.
"Oh. yes" says Robinson. 'it's
very fine here. You'd like it."

Donald Crisp. another monk
among an assortment of character
faces which must represent the
finest job of casting of its kind in
years, points out that it is not easy
to become a monk.
I'm my case" he says, "I put
on the habit, a gray, cowled affair.
and actually modelled monk. While
technically wise men sat and looked
at me, I turned this way and that.
walked slowly back and forth, and
went through the passive motions
OF holy man felt like Hattie
Carnegie model"
He made the grade, though. Makes
flne-looking monk. if any one in
Guiding Father Gilbert v. Hartke
OF Catholic University should ask us.

Heaven, Too" one learns OF the
painstaking care that goes into the
making of movie. Stars of this
one are Bette Davis and Charles
Boyer, talented and expensive
combination. Working with them
in the scene is Virginia Weidler, our
favorite mink among cinema juve-
niles. Anatole Litvak is directing.
The scene finds Miss Davis, Boyer
and Virginia seated in box at the
opera. They are required to rise,
bow to an imaginary monarch across
the theater. exchange a few words
of dialogue. Whatever led up to it,
which is another of the things we do
not know, the incident is deeply
affecting to Miss Davis and the
camera moves in at the scene end
to catch a closeup of her. 1t is
one of those sustained things and
she is required to hold the express
sion for several seconds. She is
doing very we'll with it on the first
take until Boyer, just beyond the
camera range, makes a grimace.
You louse," says Miss Davis,
laughing.
Litvak thinks they had better do
it again. So they do it again. And
then they do it again and again and
again. Whatever the difference be-
tween the various takes, it was
not apparent to at least one naked
eye looking on. The owner of the
naked eye in question eventually

Touring Warmers in the company
OF Carlisle Jones and Alex Evelove
is something. We are a special ex-
ception to their rule of remaining
in their Offices, letting others pro-
vide the escort service over the ex-
pansive property in Burbank.
Consequently it excites attention
when MessrS. Jones and Evelove ap-
pear on the lot as guides, COUNSEL
lors and friends. Attention most ex-
cited during our visit was that be-
longing to one of the regular staff
guides, one who takes regular tour
ing parties around the lot.
Who" he asked Jones when our
parties had crossed for the third
time, "is the little guy getting the
de luxe tour?"
1t gives a man a feeling of i'm
pOrtance.
