Angela Lansbury, youngest actress
ever nominated for an academy
award-for her performance in
"Gaslight"-was only II when she
played the role. her first on the
screen. Ethel Barrymore won the
award, from Angela and Jennifer

pany for any one, especially new

Only a year before, Angela had
been turned down all around the
film capital, because of her height
and an English accent. In the end,
that pair of liabilities got her her

Angela is of stage royalty. Her
mother, Moyna McGill, was a Lon
don stage star in the 20s, retiring
after she had had four children.
She is now making a new name for
herself in films as character ac-
tress Angelais maternal great uncle
was Robert Mantell.
Inherited talent, serious attitude
and an unusual beauty have put
Angela forward rapidly. There's a
lush, warm quality about her round
ed features, large soft eyes and her
youthfully slender, but full figure
that makes her most appealing.
Cameramen say 1t is impossible to
make bad picture Of her.
Designers Like Her.
Studio wardrobe workers say they
haven't had such a figure for cos

Not Even Vitamins

How to make soft-leaf trees like
elms, naples and sycamores endure
hot studio lights is one problem that
hasn't been solved yet. Directors do
get tired of palms, frs, live oaks
and peppers, which weather the in
door tre tim ent satisfactorily
enough. Al Hall, directing Rosalind
Russell and Lee Bowman in "She
Wouldn't Say Yes" tried it again,
when he got the idea it would be
romantic to have the pair go
through their wedding scene under
a grove of elms in full leaf.
The company green man Called
Joe Bush for occupatienal reasons) /,
George jacobson, said he'd try. He
got one sample tree, loaded up his
spray gun with plant hormones and
vitamin BI and doused every leaf
thoroughly. In less than half an
hour, the leaves curled and died
Hall was very put out; he just looked
the other way while Joe Bush
brought in half a dozen trusty pine
trees, veterans of other scenes, still
going strong.

of course, the barber. The atnos-

among the 10 highest receivers OF

thing he does is carefully consid-

played Chopin in "A Song to Re-
