HOLLYWOOD.
So you think kiss is a private
matter for just two people? 1t may
be that simple for you, but it isn't
that way when Hollywood's honeys
and heroes osculate for the big box
off1ce effect. On a set, big kissing
scene involves at least so people,
this, for a closeup If it is done in
the middle OF party scene, it may
be much larger number.
Let's take a kiss between Ida
Lupino and William Prince, for an
example, in a scene for Pillow to
Post" Ida and Bill are practi-
cally strangers in the story, but cir
cumStances arise that make it ap-
pear they are bride and groom. Yes,
you've seen this one before, but the
! performers have to make it seem
believable. So. Ida and Bill have
! to put the right shades of reluc-
tance and willingness into the kiss
ing.
The cameraman had to get the
lighting right, and see that Bills
nose didn't get in the way of Ida S
pert profile. The makeup depart
ment had to see that there was the
proper application of nonrubbing
lipstick on Ida, and that Bills natu-
raj perspiration was wiped of be-
tween shots. Those lights are hot.
The wardrobe woman stood by
nervously, hoping Ida's S dress would
hold at the underarms, when she
hugs Bill and when he hugs her. The
script clerk stood by to see they said
the right words before and after the
kiss. The dialogue director chewed
his nails to be sure they wouldn't
fluff the lines. The prop man wor-
ried about possible reflections on
the highly polished chair in the

Fathers Day Is Bright One for Hollywood Pops

It's quite all right for a guy who
makes love for the trembling movie
millions to be a father in Holly
wood today, but, ironically enough,
the celebration of Fathers Day
among the screen heroes of 20
years ago would have been just
about the most quiet affair imag-
Unable. In fact, you'd never have
heard peep about it.
In sharp contrast to the yester-
days, it's no sin for movie hero
to be a father today. No longer do
the studios caution their handsomes
against marriage and parenthood.
Only as far back as 1890 studios
felt it necessary to protect their
investments by inserting clauses in
leading-man contracts giving them
the right to cancel the whole deal
should love-making idol get him.
self involved in any real-life ro-
nance
1t was by no means uncommon
for producer to call his star love-
maker on the carpet and caution
him against marriage. If he couldn't
stop at that point, he shook warn
ing finger at the bridegroom about
fatherhood. Several stars had their
contracts Cancelled and quickly sank
to celluloid oblivion because they
dared to rock the cradle.
Papas Not Popular.
| In those not-so-good old days the
'front.' office experts on box Office re-
turns figured that all the world
might love a screen lover, but that
film fans would have little use for
a glamour boy who became a real
life papa.
1t was Hollywood's belief that
| feminine customers should be al
lower to dream, unenlightened, that
they might some day WOO and wed
the virile star who performed such
romantic ramblings on the silver
sheet
Oldtimers in this business will
never forget how the career of
Francis x Bushman, first OF the
great celluloid idols, was wrecked
overnight when the horrible news
leaked out that he was a married
man and, of all unthinkable things
the father Of seven children! Mr.
Bushman was through overnight. To
this day he attributes his failing for
tune to that terrifying disclosure.
Not such oldtimers will recall
the case of Carl Brisson, the elegant
Swedish star, who came to Holly
wood via England with fanfare sec
ond only to that accompanying a
visiting potentate.
With him constantly was a hand
some youth, whom Carl always in
troduced as his younger brother. 1t
wasn't until a year later that Bris-
sons brother" was exposed as his
son.
Brisson sr, no longer is active in
! pictures, but he continues to at
tract feminine audiences as singing
star of New Yorks smartest night
clubs, even though he is, admittedly,
grandfather. Recently, brother"
Maj. Fred Brisson, United States
Army Air Corps, and his wife, Rosa
lind Russell, became the parents of
son.
Hardly dozen years ago, when
Phil Reean was at the height of his
romantic hero career. his studio
made every effort to get him to stop
publicizing his children-numberin
six. Mr.. Regan, however, told his

She was the mean sister in And
Now Tomorrow" with Alan Ladd
and Loretta Young. And that was
the last picture before her current
"Deadline at Dawn" This latter
was all set to go last August, with
Susan as tee star. Then she found
she was expecting baby and forgot
about the picture After the twins
were born-three months ago, Susan
was telephoned at the hospital and
asked: When will you be ready for
the picture?" What picture?
Susan wanted to know 1t seems that
both writer Clifford Odets and Di-
rector Harold Clurman had decided
no one else would do for the role.
And they waited for her.
The twins were only 10 weeks old
when Susan faced the cameras
again which was perhaps little
too soon. She weighed 103 when
she left the hospital, but has since
gained pounds.
The babies came six weeks ahead
of time she tells me. Il was
watching Joseph Gotten in Since
You Went Away and the scene
where he has the fight with the

The Hayward Barker marriage

The other evening Jess asked Susan

Don Ameche was the highest SAL
aried male star on the goth Cen
tury-Fox lot until a few months
ago when he stepped out to produce
his own movies. He has invariably
played romantic roles. And Ameche
is not only the father of four boys.
but he has let it be known that he
Is out to adopt couple of girls,
providing matters can be arranged.
Contrast the audacity of Messrs.
Young and Ameche with the ac-
tlons OF a certain star of many long
years ago. The star of silent DAYS,
upon being confronted with a pho
tograph of his child, denied that he
was even married. And then he
had his press agent scurrying about
all night trying to buy the child's
picture back from the newspa per
photographer who had snapped it
on the sly.
Fathers Are Proud.
Even among the foremost heart
throb heroes, fatherhood seems to
add to their following. In the old
days a great hush-hush would have
surrounded the blessed event which
made Gregory Peck a father. The
TACT that he was just becoming a
feminine rave didn't keep him from
revealing the new arrival at such
a crucial time in his career. Paul
Henreid had just come to the atten-
ton Of film audiences in l943 with
his romantic role in Joan of Paris
when he became the father of a
girl, His popularity didn't diminish
by as much as one sigh from the
feminine chorus when this was re-
vealed. He is now planning to adopt
another child.
Aside from Enrol Flynn and
Charlie Chaplin, perennial fathers
IN old movietown, how about such
romantic papas as John Payne
John Garfield, Robert Walker, Van
Heflin, Ronald Reagan, James Craig,
Alan Ladd, Ray Milland, Fred Mac
Murray, Joel McCrea, Robert Mont
gomery, Ronald Coleman, Charles
Boyer, Dana Andrews, John Loder
John Wayne, Dick Powell, Bob Hope.
Dick Haynes. Pat O'Brien, George
Murphy. Fred Astaire, Frederic
March, Franchot Tone, Jack Carson,
Walter Pidgeon and Glenn Ford?
They can be happy this Fathers
Day because the kids can greet them
at any time with Hello, Pop" and
still not endanger their box -office
ratings.

Another star whose audience sp-

Sinatra. AS any bobby-soxer can

Frank, jr., born in 1914. Sinatra

fact that he has three daughters

RathbOne Feels Stage Lure
BY ROsaHnd Shafer

: to pleasant homes. What I mean is
that an actor shouldn't become a
landed gentleman; if he puts any
thing ahead of his acting, he's no
longer creative. Plays are his busi-
ness, not farms or horses or gar
dens. In this pleasant, wealthy
Hollywood, where an actor has
everything but chance to grow
as an artist, there's no challenge 20
an actor.
Admits Frustration.
When I came to films from the
theater, I came because it looked
like an exciting prospect for an
actor. For a few years it went well; !;
I was a colorful, exciting villain in
many important pictures. Now
after several years of playing Sher-
lock Holmes on the air and in pic
lures, producers see me only as that
sort of a character. It's nobody s
fault, suppose, and Sherlock is a
classic, but I've had enough. It's

| Some few years back, Rathbone
with the late Leslie Howard, Max
Reinhardt and others attempted to
start a legitimate theater season
here, using different players in the
roles different nights, and changing
the bills frequently
What do We want theater for
here, anyway" asked one annoyed
producer This is a movie town."
Undismayed, the group went to
the women's clubs to speak for their
theater. There was no response
The dear ladies came to see the
monkeys, but they weren't buying
anyway, thank you, says Rathbone
wryly.
What am 1 going to do about all
this career business? I'm planning
to follow the pattern set by my
friend, Leslie Howard, who bought
himself two good plays, The Petri-
fed Forest and Berkeley Square.
I've got a couple of good play prop
critics and I'm going back to the
theater and to work. says Rath-
