an. experiment and challenge. He was interested in the character of Gregory Anton, a man capable of working a lifetime on Q devlishly ingenious plot to get his hands on a jewel collection so famous that to dispose of them would be impos- sible. Then too, he was curious as to the reaction of moviegoers, most of whom are Boyer fans. Accus- toned to doing romantic roles, he was anxious to discover if, through the years, he had maintained the fine hand for villainy that brought him such success in many French stage productions.
 Audience reaction is different in France than in America" he said. They enjoy seeing an actor portray a variety of roles. To be a hero in one play and villain in the next amuses them. I have noticed that here this is not so. American audiences take their actors very seriously. It is not always play acting to them. Anyone who por- trays a despicable character-male or female, on the screen is quite apt to find himself persona non grata, even avoided sometimes at social functions.' Something tells me that, following "Gaslight". my invitations to formal social affairs will suffer a decline"
 Nevertheless, Boyer pulled no

punches in making Gregory Anton an original, dyed -in-the- wool black guard. Even others of the cast and stage crew were caught in the illusion of the French stars superb skulduggery in his wickedest mo- ments, and hissed their appreciation when the action stopped. Not a few of them admitted that, when the final moment for retribution ar rived, they would be glad to assist Miss Bergman in dispatching him via a stilletto poised above his heart.
 "Gaslight" marks the rst role of this type for Boyer in almost eleven years of appearing in American mos tion pictures. Boyer considers this complete change of pace" a neces- sity in the life of any actor.
 "It gives the same lift that one gets from changing gears while driv- ing 8 car,' he smiled. Low gear may be safer, but 1t gets monotonous after a time."
 A native of Figeac. France, Boyer was well-known figure on the stage of Paris long before the thought of acting in motion pictures ever occurred to him He ap- peared steadily on the stage from 1919 to 1880 when the lucrative of- fers of Hollywood, engaged then in the making of many foreign film versions, induced him to come to the

:" Finally, someone offered her a Chilean visa. Madeleine sold her automobile and her jewels for money to complete" the arrange ments. T figured" she said, that once in Chile I could eventually get to America"
 NEW WORLD
 A few weeks later Madeleine with poyful heart, boarded the small, dirty Portuguese steamer, Quanza in Lisbon. Passage money cost her another $2,000. But when the boat docked at Vera Cruz, she discovered her passport was a forgery. Most of the 200 passengers on board were in the same predicament. They would have to remain aboard ship, the captain said, and return to Lisbon.
 On the return trip to Lisbon, the Quanza docked at Norfolk, Va, to coal. The passengers immedi- ately held a secret meeting. Now that the boat was in an American port, maybe something could be done. A lawyer on board had an idea.
 "The lawyer" Madeleine said, thought that if the passengers sued the captain for something, the sailing would be postponed and government officials would come aboard. So we sued the cap- tain for undeclared cargo. Well, the boats sailing was delayed for two weeks, and government off, calls came aboard in droves.s
 Through the passengres' suit against the captain. newspaper re- porters learned of the fraudulent passport machinations. The story was widely published and soon be- came ''cause celebre." Friends and immigration authorities inter- ceded for the passengers and most of the were given permanent United States visas. Madeleine wasn't so lucky. She was given a Canadian passport with two months transit time to get to Montreal from New York.
 JURNEY'S END
 She spent the rest of her money and most of the two months in New York hospital, deathly ill. Fin ally arriving in Montreal, she took a small role in a French stock com- pany. Two months later she Suc- ceeded in getting quota number to enter the United States, and bought @ plane ticket to Hollywood.

goth Century-Fox's wondrous ways with musicals will manifest it. self again when the New Musical Pin Up Girl" opens Friday at Loew Poll theater. The technicolor triumph, starring Betty Grable. Tn the most beautiful Musical hit of the day, and we are sure you will agree when you see few scenes of this hit yourself. Dated to laughs, dove, and the pursuit of happiness, this song-and-dance, laugh-and-ro- nance extravaganza frames Betty Grable like her picture pinned up on the walls of her fans the world over, and as such, hits a new high in sheer screen entertainment. The studio that brought the memorable hits, "Coney Island" and Sweet Rosie O'Grady" to the screen let out all the stops in making Pin Up Girl" a truly brilliant and eye-fill- ing thing of beauty from begin- ming to exciting finale. They have surrounded Betty with cast of outstanding screen talent, including John Harvey, Martha Kaye, Joe E. Brown, Eugene Palette and Charlie Spivak and His orchestra. Since Music that counts in musical Pin Up Girl" is studded with no less than eight new hit songs by Mack Gordon and James Monaco. And judging from how they sound as sung by Betty Grable and Martha Rave and played by Spivak and his boys, they're songs you'll undoubt- edly be hearing at the top of the nations hit parade. Pin Up Girl" has the most exciting dance spec tacles ever to pack musical on the screen. As the pin-up sweetheart of millions of servicemen the world over, Betty Grable is of course, her own superb, scintillating self, even when she is called by the delightful intricacies of the plot to assume the disguise of prim and bespectacled stenographer. Pin Up Girl" is sheer entertainment that will send your spirits soaring.

Being hissed instead of kissed is a new experience for Charles Boyer.
 The screens great lover" has temporarily put this title into moth balls to become a candidate for the dubious honor as the nastiest villain of l944. The sight of Boyer subtly torturing such lovely creature as Ingrid Bergman in M-G-Ms Cas- light, which closes at the Strand theater, Thursday will undoubted- ly give his legion of feminine fans a severe attack of the jitters.

If they put it down In a motion picture script, you would say, "A great story. Those film writers sure dream up some swell Ideas"
 But 20-year-oid French actress Medicine Le Beau has proof that 1t is all true.
 She's the beautiful lady who play ed a French refugee and sang the "Marseillaise" in Humphrey Be- gart's night club in "Casablanca." " You saw her on the screen more re- gently in Paris After Dark"
 Before that she played a bit role in Hold Back the Dawn" Int was her first job in Hollywood. A friend of pre-war Paris days, Charles Boyer, helped her get the role so she could pay the rent for back street Hollywood apartment. Also, so she could buy something to eat besides crackers and cheese.
 Madeleine, you see, was penniless when she arried in movietown two and a half years ago.
 She had left Paris just a few hours before the Germans marched into the city. Driving her fancy automobile and with her jewels and $4,00O in cash in her purse, Madeleine fled to Biarritz, on the Spanish border, and then to Ma drid. In Madrid she was "de- tained" in hotel room for two months.

 Now a citizen of the United States. Boyer is active in charity and war relief work. Much of his time is devoted to his French foun- dation, an organization which he heads as an aid to all interested in France and French research, profess sionals and students alike. Many American training films made in this country for the benefit of the armed forces are translated, through his efforts, for use by the Fighting French.
 Co-featured on the same program is "Trocadero'' starring Rosemary Lane and Johnny Downs.
