Another Newcomer Heads for Cinema Fame

of the vixenish type of character
which has done so much for others
in the past. You hate Ann Blythe
in Mildred Pierce" You want to
tear her to pieces before the pic
ture is over. But you remember
her. That's all any actress can
ask.
Sure Attention Getter.
1t isn't that newcomers have to
play disagreeable characters to gain
notice with fans. It's simply that
portraying such types, when done
effectively, is a sure-fire way of
gaining first attention.
Ann Blythe might go on forever
playing little goody-two-sh roles,
as she did in her first two pictures.
Chip Off the Old Block" and 1.-The
Merry Monahans," without attract
ing critical acclaim. Hollywood is
loaded with girls just as cute and
photogenic as Ann. But there are
precious few roles like Veda in Mil
dred Pierce"
Yes, Ann Blythe has joined a
memorable alumnae. She's made
good in stand-out role. Her task
now is to continue to merit the at
tention she has won. H H.

They're ellKnown, but Nobody Knows Them

Italian well, know Alberni intimately
but not his name.
When it comes to old men. there's
Clem Bevans and, of course. charm
ing old Harry Davenport. When you
spot either of these spry oldsterS
trotting down the street, you're likely
to be reminded of an uncle or a
grandparent back home-in fact,
you're likely to be reminded of
everything except the actors name.
The same holds true for Murray
Alper, Monte Blue, Roman Bohncn,
Curt Bois, Eric Blore, Edward Bro
ply, Nigel Bruce, Felix Bressart,
James Burke and scores of others.
1t was true not long ago of Sgd
ney Greenstreet. Bill Bendix,
Charles Coburn, Paul Lukas and
Walter Brennan. All these gentle
men were character actors for years
before they became stars and ac-
quired Identities of their own.
You'd know Hattie Mcdaniel, of
course, but would you always iden-
Mary Boland, Spring Byington and
Lucille Gleason? Sometimes, but
not often enough to escape confu-
sion. There's also Mary Gordon,
Jessie Grayson twho has 'maided"
in enough pictures to solve the do
mestic employment problem in any
big city,, Ilka Grunning, Ely NAL
yon. Odette Myrtle, Una O'Connor,
Adeline De Walt Reynolds, Virginia
Sale. Marjorie Hamilton-and on
down the semianonymouS line.
When you see a distinguished
looking gentleman with the bearing
of retired Army officer, it's likely
to be Russell Hicks. Lawyers and
officers are played by Clarence Kolb.
Middle-aged men by Grant Mitchell,
and If it's a gangSter or a Jap, it's
probably George E. Stone.
They Do Some Real Acting.
In a way, their very anonymity is
valuable asset to these actors. 1t
enables them to go from picture to
picture, at wages of $1,000 to $4,000
week, without risking the public's
getting tired of them as it does
eventually of the overpublicized
stars.
The real acting in motion pictures
is performed by those virtual un-
knowns. Often - too often - the
widely ballyhooed stars are little
more than blazing personalities, to-
tally incapable of reading a line or
developing characterization. The
real story, the plot, the feeling, the
zest that makes the effort good, is
provided by the character actors.
BY and large, the character people
fare better, last longer, make more
money than the average actor. The
fact that you don't always know
their names doesn't bother them.
But they do enjoy it when you rec
ognize them on the street-without
actually knowing who they are.
Come to think of it, that's a swell
compliment to artistic success.

informed her agents that she had
all but stolen the picture from such
veterans as Joan Crawford and Jack
Carson, the co-stars.
Ann and her tobogganing partner
prepared for one final dash down
the mountain. Her escort, James
Geraghty, checked the sled and the
couple raced down the slope.
No one knows exactly what they
hit, or how it happened, but a mo-
ment later Ann was lying critically
injured in the snow. Somehow she
found her feet and stumbled down
the hill to Geraghty's car. Her
escort, unhurt, rushed her to a hos
pital in San Bernadino, 30 miles
away. Her back was fractured
Ann spent 19 days in that hospital
in heavy cast. Then it was re-
placed by lighter one. She slept
in it nightly for the next six
months. She got up a few weeks
ago and found herself famous
actress.
Recalls Command Performance"
For a girl barely IT, Ann Blythe
has had more acting experience
than most three times her age
Born in Mount Kisco, N. Y, Ann
started acting on the radio when
only five, keeping at it steadily over
New York stations for seven years
Following this she sang for three
years with the San Carlo Opera Co.
after which she joined Watch on
the Rhine" with Paul Lukas, Mady
Christians and Lucille Watson. The
play ran for II months on Broad
way and another nine on tour.
Her most thrilling remembrance
of the long run was a command
performance" at the National The
ater in Washington, attended by the
late Franklin D. Roosevelt She
still cherishes a memento of the oc-
casion-a packet of FDR's personal
paper matches in the shape of a
fishing schooner, with the ships
masts spelling out the Presidents
initials. She also remembers thai
Secret Service men swarmed all ovel

matter of fact, he wasn't in the steel
business. He said his name was
Eugene Palette.
And that's the way it is with
character actors-everybody knows
them and nobody knows who they
are.
They are the people who play the
cooks, chauffeurs, hotel clerks. law
yerS, doctors, grandpaS and grand
mas and they play those roles SO
many times in so many pictures
that all of us have the right to
think we know EN-.
They're Accustomed to II.
But the stars get the billing. We
go to see the Bette Davis picture, the
Clark Gable picture, the Bogart
show, and aside from a handful OF
supporting players who are almost
stars, we seldom pay any attention
to the other names.
Fortunately. the character actors
are accustomed to the phenomenon
of being recognized but not being
known. They like to be recognized.
They enjoy grinning back at you,
and most of them understand quite
we'll that you are puzzled and why
you are puzzled.
There's a reverse twist to this
curious trick that memory plays on
you in Hollywood You meet not
only old friends but old enemies. In
addition to the persons you see on
streets and in restaurants who seem
to be old friends, you will run into
others from whom you recoil.
Here comes a man you've disliked
for years. You can't help it. You
stare at him. And he smiles and
speaks to you very politely. But who
is he?
Probably the lanky John Cara

reer face-lifting for the veteran
star, Joan Crawford, but it catapults
a youngster named Ann Blythe,
begged down for years by goody-
goody roles, into a spot where she
can just about dictate her own
terms.
The story of Ann Blythe. one of
hundreds of ambitious kids who
storm the gates of Hollywood, get
kicked around by inconseQuentiall
roles and then suddenly land the
big pfums they all dream about, is
one of near-tragedy.
1t might begin on the evening of
last April 8. The real-life setting
was California; S famed winter resort
on Big Bear Mountain. just enough
snow for a fast toboggan ride and
the air was alive with shouts of
happy youngsters who had motored
from Hollywood to try their luck
with the sleds.

In the group was this pretty girl,
Ann Blythe. She had her own pri-
vate reason for being happy that
night. She had won (from more
than so contenders) and had Just
completed role in that Mildred
Pierce" movie, the like of which
comes to small-part players but once
in a lifetime. And those who had
seen the film in rough-cut form had
