Films Life
Of Goodman

TRUST HOLLYWOOD to be
ingenious when the occasion de-
mandS. The manner in which the
life of Benny Goodman will be
filmed is proof of the fact.
Along with Richard English and
Edward Haldeman, Goodman has
authored his musical and life
story under the title, king of
Swing" the title the clarinet
player held so long with the jit-
terbugs.
There is a deal pending which
will sell the picture to Twentieth
Century-FoX now. So while Good
man is all the title indicates, he is
not an outstanding actor. and ne
realizes that fact. For that reason,
the boys have worked out clever
way for Benny to be in his own
story and still not be called upon
to play the leading role.
The picture would open with
Goodman directing his band. a
tall, dark, embryo hep-cat strollS in
and asks Benny'S advice about
getting to the top.
So Goodman says, We'll, If you
had lived my life, here's what
would have happened to you" And
bingo, they 60 into the life story.
When the picture is made, it
will be the ultimate of the dreams
of ali jitterbugs who have had to
hear their heroes through the me-
dunn of radio and juke box.
Especially for the boys and gals
who live in smaller towns, this
type of film will present a much
brighter outlook on the music
situation.
The trend seems to indicate that
name bands will be the biggest
and best of future box office at
fractions, what with Ellington,
Basic, Miller and the Dorsey
brothers all signing contracts with
the HOLLYWOOD studios.

SOck-in-JaIU
For Camera
Real Thing
BY JOHN TODD

HOLLYWOOD, May 6-When
you see a character in a movie
take a sock on the jaw il may look
pretty terrific, but you don't know
and this is putting it mildly-the
half of il.
Our authority for that is John
Ridgley, whom you may have seen
in Air Force" and who is con-
sidered one of the up-and-coming
young actors on the w arm e T
Brothers lot.
This reporter was talking with
Ridgley today on the set at
Warmers where Royal Canadian
Mountie Enrol Flynn is busy trap
ping NaZis right and left for the
film, "To the Last Man"
"In this next scene, 1 take a
sock on the jaw from Flynn"
Ridgley, who is a brother noun
tie in the picture, said.
Doesn't that worry you a
blt?" your reporter asked.
Well" Ridgley h e 81 I e d,
"Flynn was fighter once" But,
more hopefully, Rldgley added:
"That, however, should have
taught him to know where he's
hitting"
1.-THE trick. then" your re-
porter suggested, should be TO
let him know where you're going
to be-"
Director Raoul Walsh summoned
Ridgley and Flynn to the set, the
interior of a north country hotel
for a rehearsal, and that's where
the tough job of being an actor
began.
One rehearsal wasn't enough. 4
half dozen times he had Flynn anC
Ridgley run through the scene
and each time Ridgley took a clou
on the jaw and a solid fall on thu
floor.
Finally Walsh "Shot" the scene
and a bruised but relieved Ridgle.
got up from the floor. Walsh
however, was dissatisfied, ant
Ridgley had to take it" again.
