footsteps of the great screen
idols of the past-nOw he's

The young star doesn't

parties lately, Johnson, who
has been too busy on "N0

tailor, has been borrowing
from the M-G-M wardrobe
department.
Last weekend he receiv-

called the studio and was
told the tux he'd borrowed
before was in use.
"Send anything that will
fit" he asked.

But that was away back in
1887.
Although a few pictures about
Hollywood were made before
that, none was outstandingly
successful, possibly because the
film industry was too self-con-
scious to be either seriously
truthful about itself or to poke
fun at itself.
Self-Imposed Ban
After "A Star is Born" other
producers, evidently believing
that any movie of that type
would suffer by comparison,
gave the Hollywood scene
beautiful snub.
So there developed the situa-
ton of picture-makers purposely
ignoring their own backyard,
even though that backyard was
one of the most glamorous spots
in the world and one in which
every movie fan was interested.
The first studio to challenge
the taboo and take the self-im-
posed ban off of pictures con-
corning Hollywood was Para
mount.
They did it with a picturiza-
ton of Raymond Chambers
mystery novel, Double Indem-

action took place in the film
