A Loss of Prestige.
Though most of her pupils are
beginners, some are well known
actors who insist that their identity
be kept secret.
Acting" Madame remarked wryly,
"is the one profession in which it's
loss of prestige to study"
Madame said a true actor would
be equally at home in any medium
movies, the stage. television, even
the circus-that actors who feel they
can reach audiences in but one
medium suffer from a feeling of
inferiority.
The technique of acting changes
constantly" she declared.
What was good in 1918 could
have been bad Is years later. What
was marvellous even in 1888 may not
be acceptable now.
But acting principles never
change. Good acting is what it
always has been and always will
be-the re-creating of a reality"

For Hemingway's

HOLLYWOOD.
Paramount paid Ernest Heming-
way $150,000 for the rights to For
Whom the Bell Tolls and then
hired Louis Bromfield to rearrange
it. Broomfield is getting a tidy
chunk, maybe $4,000.
And a. good investment" said
Sam Wood, who will direct it.
"Bromfeld will turn a fine story into
fine scenario" Bromfield is not, of
course, rewriting Hemingway. In
changing the novel into a screen
play, Bromfield is using, Wood said,
Hemingway's dialogue and mood,
not Bromfield's.
That 1t Will Remain.
This. as at least million read
ers must know, is a love story laid
against the brutal background of
the Spanish Civil War;" Wood de-
clared. And that is what it will re-
main. Not an essential will be
changed"
The opening sequences are off

ing is casual. The movie will start
with the incident of the bombing of
the train, told in cloSe-ups of JOr-
dan and the Russian accomplice he
is obliged to kill, to give the story
immediate vitality and action.
Hemingway tells this in retrospect.
Well, Almost.
This will be followed by scene in
the motel in Madrid where Jordan
gets his instructions for blowing up
the bridge. And then, Wood said,
We'll pick up the book and 60 on
from there. 1t will be the book from
then on" Almost, anyway. Those
| who have read it know there are a
few paragraphs Bromfeld will be
obliged to omit.
Although the filming won't start
for two or three months, the actor
interest already has reached stage
that is annoying in some quarters,
including the directors. A surpris-
ingly large number of players ap-
| parently are willing to work for
nothing to be in the film.
Paramount announced such full
series of tests that no person with
any possibilities at all will be over
looked. The proportion of broken
hearts will, therefore. be much
larger than usual. Nothing takes
the zip out Of an actor like losing
role after giving his all in test.

brought to Hollywood because he
scored such a hit as the perverted
little German killer in the Fritz
Lang production, IN"
1t isn't surprising that LORE can
jabber away furiously in half-a-
dozen languages, understands sew
eral others. He taught himself
early in his career, to be a dialec-
tician. So far, this has been no
great asset to his acting, LORE ad-
mits, but it has borne other fruits
he hadn't counted upon at the out
set.
The intensive study of dialects
and accents so sharpened his ear
and tongue that he was soon able
to pronounce any foreign language
he learned with flawless ease.
For that reason he is not ham,
pered, as so many actors are on
coming to Hollywood from far-off
lands, with a heavy accent. The
slight accents he has used on the
screen are merely applications Of
the dialectician's art.

Borrowing Hayworth from Colum-

in her even a trace of the ego that
is part of the actors stock, the thing
that gives him confidence when he
needs 1t most.
You can't help wondering. hear
ing Rita talking so diff1dently about
herself, whether she is this way
naturally, or because of criticism
not intended for her ears.
The immediate effect Of that re-
mark was to cause Rita to rush out
and begin taking dramatic lessons.
CT thought I was pretty good, until

sons until recently, and she stlll

What Not TO DO.
Rita doesn't say, II know I have
become a better actress" She says:
IT guess I have become a better
actress.
You learn in many ways. You
learn by watching others. Mostly
I've learned what not to do by
watching others"
No, she's never argued with a di-
rector. No, she's never thrown tam
trum. No, she's never protested with
tears, as do some actresses. but occa-
soionally she cried from exhaustion
while working.
She thinks dyeing her hair did
her the most good.
IT used to feel like a Spanish girl,
but with red hair I feel-well, like
an American"
Rita is Spanish and she was born
in New York % years ago. Her real
name is Cansino Hayworth was her
mothers name) and she began dane
ing with her father, Eduardo, when
she was II. She has been in the
movies since she was hired for q
Spanish number six years ago.
Success Bred Success.
Rita rated very little attention
before the strawberry Blond" in
cident, which just goes to prove, she
says and I agreed, that luck is what
counts most in Hollywood.
A public which is advised to accept
no substitute accepted Rita in Sher-
idan's place; at least, the picture was
successful and that's what counts.
The campaign also resulted in local
interest in Rita. She was borrowed
for another "A" picture, Blood and
Sand" in which she played the vamp
in an adequate if not inspired man
ner.
Returning to her home lot, she
was treated like a star, not casually
like the fixture she had become at
Columbia. She then was cast oppo-

Others complained of the growing

Some people complained, too.

March conceded that several of
his roles had called for a high de-
gree of sophistication Many re-
member him best. too, for the film
''Dr. Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde"
A committee representing all the
large Prote ant denominations
chose DR.. Norman Vincent Peale
of New York as technical adviser
for the film.
DR.. Peale is the son of a Method
ist and was reared in that faith, but
answered a call to a Dutch Re-
formed Church. First off, said
March, DR.. Peale deleted from the
script the mild expletive holy
smoke" on the ground that it might
offend Catholics. All along, he has
kept strict eye on the actors and
dialogue and the sets.
In one sequence" said March,
"a wealthy woman who had gone
over to the Baptists repents and
seeks readmittance to the flock.
Without her realizing it, the minis
ter induces her to offer the church
a large donation, then refuses TO
let her give it except in the name
Of her dead husband.
I'm thanking her, I closed my
eyes, as the minister did in the
pulpit just before each sermon. DR..
Peale ruled that I play the scene
with my eyes open, lest suspicion
of deceit attach to the minister"
March admitted he is by no
means regular churchgoer. but
he. sends his two children faith
fully.
Persons who seldom go to church
are inclined to think of attendance
as being poor" said March. "Ac-
tually, it is growing. and many
churches are crowded regularly.

Spence to those who said the

denies that this marvellous phrase
actually was uttered. However, her
reaction to the report indicated she
felt 1t was reflection on Mr. Gold
wyn, and Mr.. Goldwyn's new shin
ing light seemed less than anxious
to reflect on the boss.
Encouragement From Mrs. G.
Mr.. GoldWyn advised Teresa to
brush her hair a lot. Seems if
you're muddy blond, so muddy as
to be taken for a brunette, you
have to bring out lights in the hair
or the camera will think you're
wearing mud wig. In fact, Mr..
GoldWyn called up his hairdressing
department right then and there
and told them to give Teresa good
brushing and a good brush, too.
She still has the brush and uses it.
Later that day, Teresa saw Mr..
and Mrs. Goldwyn in the studios
coffee shop. 1T was one of those
things" she said. Both of us
seemed eager to meet each other,
but as I passed Mr.. Goldwyn hap
pened to be busy with something
a sandwich. if remember correctly.
Then. when I went to the hair
dressers Mrs Goldwyn was there
and introduced herself and said she
just knew, from what Mr.. Goldwyn
had told her, that was going to be
all right"
From this may be deduced: Cd
That the whole family is sweet; (2)
that Mr.. Goldwyn is the kind of
boss who talks over all his business
with his Mrs.

I'm before a still camera" Teresa
said, funny things happen to my
face. My mouth droops down at one
side and my face falls down from
my eyes and I look very sad. The
stills are terrible, but I never knew
that, I just thought they were
realistic.
A Psych0analyst, Too.
THE first began to suspect was
when Mr.. GoldWyn arrived at a
place where five of his top still pho
tographers were working on me with
their cameras and started to tell
them what he saw in me. He went
on and on, telling them what he
saw in me and telling them that he
wanted them to see that. too. No,
can't tell you what he said he saw in
me. Id blush too much.
Finally, the head photographer
spoke up. Yes, Mr.. Goodwin he
said, but you forget, it's not what
We see in her, it's what the camera

She's One School Teacher Whose Pupils Stand in Awe
Her Student Blu Asoa aTrulyG GreatAc
By Vern Hangland,
Associated Press Stan Writer.
HOLLYWOOD.

HOLLYWOOD.
There's this about Maria Ouspens-
kaya: She never plays casual part,
many people fear her and she's not
so old as she looks.
To the average filmgoer, who re-
members her as the mad countess of
Greta Garbo's Conquest" as
Charles Bove-s grandmother In
love A"air" or as the maharani in
THE Rains Came" Nine. Ouspens-
kaya appears at least 70. Actually,
she says, she's 54.
Her first picture was "Dods-
worth" in 1886, when she re-enact-
ed the role she played on the stage.
In five years she has appeared in
but II films, yet she is one of the
best known of character actresses.
Il will only do roles that make
my heart 60 like this" she ex-
plains with an expressive flutter of
her fingers. Most of my time is
taken up with teaching others"
In her most recent film, Dance,
Girl, Dance" she played the role of
harsh dancing teacher. a marti-
net of the flercest type In real life,
too, she's something like that.
Either Version.
Students at her Sunset boulevard
dramatic school confess that. slight
and without physical menace though
she may be, she COWS them.
I'VE call her madame" said one,
without knowing whether it's an
official title-like the British dame
But no one would dare call her
Maria and her last name is too

The surname is pronounced in
the Russian manner with the ac-
cent on the second syllable, or,
American fashion, accented on the
third. Madame" responds to either
pronunciation, at school and STU
dio. without comment.
Has she ever been married?"
The student smiled Nobody here
ever had the temerity to ask"
Hardly Intimidating.
At her plainly furnished hillside
house near the Hollywood Bowl,
Madame hardly could have been de-
scribed as intimidating. A small
woman, with tightly combed hair
and a thin. bony face, she would
appear fragile except that she's so
wiry. She came down steep flight

So Sam Goldwyn. in addition to
being a movie genius and a man
who coins unlimited phrases, is quite
some boss, too. If you don't think
so or the people he's fired don't
