Irving Berlin
In Film Debut

Irving Berlin may have twenty
odd years of song-writing and
show business behind him. but
he has just made his debut as
motion-picture actor. He sang
a song for his own This Is the
Army" which Warner Bros. is
producing in technicolOr for
Army Emergency Relief.
At 1:3O in the afternoon. he
reported on Stage 3. to make a
recording of his song "Oh How
Hate to Get Up in the Morn
ing" To say he was nervous
would he the understatementt of
the year.
Berlin is always nervous. Even
though he has sung the song
200 times or more since the
opening of This Is the Army"
in July. 1912, the job of record
ing his thin. ready-like voice.
lifted high in song. presented a
tremendous obstacle to him.
Everything Set
The musicians finished their
rehearsing. Heindorf spotted
Berlin. Were ready. Irving"
he announced. Are you?"
With the look of a trapped
man. Berlin advanced to the
microphone.
The sound stage was quiet.
The few spectators made no
sound. Heindorf tapped with
his baton. Let's run through
it once. to see if it sounds all
right"
They went through it. When
they came to Berlin's cue, he
began to sing. So small was the
voice that you could hardly hear
it six feet away. 1t was remin-
iscent of the time when Joe
Frisco said. of Berlin's singing,
you have to hug him to hear
him."
When they finished. the sound
man said 20. X, but move Mr..
Berlin away from the micro
phone. He sounds too big
against the orchestra" The day
of miracles is not yet over.
They went through "Oh How
| Hate to Get Up in the Morn
ing" again for the film. When
it was over. the sound man
nodded his head vigorously.
That was swell" he said
Berlin heaved a sigh of relief.
Now I'm a movie actor" he
said. with big grin on his face.
Maybe I'll give up songwrit-

Irving Berlin's
Army Film Due
At Plaza
Movie Version of
s'This Is The Army"
Starts Engagement
This Tuesday

Irving Berlin's This Is the
Army" which successfully
stormed city after city in its
original stage version. comes to
the screen of the Plaza Theatre
in its Warner Bros technicolor
production. The picture will be
a happy invasion of the hearts
of America by its stalwart and
talented sons in the service.
The Warner Bros. production
for Army Emergency Relief
uses all three hundred and fifty
of the original cast plus heavy
weight champion Sergeant Joe
Louis. In putting the great
show on film, the studio was
careful not to alter but to aug
ment it. Thus a large cast of
motion picture and radio stars
was added as were some old and
new Irving Berlin songs.
Hollywood is richly represent
ed by. among others, George
Murphy, Joan Leslie, Lieutenant
Ronald Reagan. George Tobias.
Alan Hale, Charles Butterworth
and Una Merkel.
Radios great star, Kate Smith,
sings the hymn, God Bless
America" which she intro
duced to the nation over the air.
Frances Langford puts over the
new Berlin number What Does
He Look Like" while Gertrude
Niesen sings some of the COM
poser's World War l tunes.
A screen story was built
around the show, linking to-
gether the generations of the
two world wars and giving the
production a ulot interest which
the stage version lacked.
Based upon a screen play by
Casey Robinson and Captain
Claude Binyon, Irving Berlin's
This Is the Army" was directed
by Michael Curtiz who directed
Yankee Doodle Dandy" Casa
blanca, mission to Moscow"
and other outstanding motion
pictures.

was that Of registrants who filled
