This business of being discovered
by Hollywood, Marjorie Reynolds
observed today. is rather embar-
RAISING Marjorie, you see gets
discovered just about every 20
reels. It's been going on, in fact,
every since she was baby Last
season Hollywood discovered her
as a dancer and she drew Fred
Astaire, no less, as a partner in
Holiday Inn
A few months ago Hollywood
discovered Marjorie as a dramatic
actress, ard cast her with a Vien-
nese accent in a heavy melodrama,
Ministry of Fear
Couple of weeks ago Producer
Edward Small discovered her as
comedienne. Now she's making
with comedy in the film version of
the 1920 stage farce, up in Mabel'S
Room
Marjorie sighed.
Its nice, she said. Keeps me
busy. And I like to work. But it's
all rather embarrassing. People
are forever coming up to me and
saying. SO you've been discovered
AGAIN Makes me feel kind Of
silly"
Marjorie Reynolds was only four
when Hollywood discovered her the
first time. That was as Viola
Dana's daughter in the silent hit,
"Scaramouche." She sat on Ramon
Novarro's knee and movie-makers
hailed her as a new child star.
For a couple of years motion
picture wasn't complete without
little Marjorie Then old age
sneaked up on her and, at u, she
retired. Hollywood discovered her
again when she was Is. She played
the ingenue lead with the late Lew
Cody in Wine. Women and Song
II don't know what happened but
that finished me as an actress
she said. $50 for a couple of years
I danced in the chorus at Para

discovered me again-as a western
