WOOD rhetoric, but they are never
of the record.
Goldwyn's colleagues would like to
see that reversed. II he will not
be politely evasive about what he
thinks, they wish he would be more
careful about speaking in public to
any one who happens to ask pro-
vocative question.
As q quality producer, the tactful
thing for Goldwyn to do would be to
keep silent on what he thinks Of the
quantity producers. Goldwyn thinks
otherwise
Accordingly, on the subject Of
whether there is shortage OF talent
capable of making good pictures,
Goldwyn says:
Definitely There Is not enough
fine talent in Hollywood to make
half the pictures that are being
made, and that goes all along the
line"
csntrasted with many q Goldwyn
quote by the native California;
columnists, the English language Is
not in the least tortured in that
statement The egos of some OF
Goldwyn's colleagues in the industry
escape far less lightly, however.
&4*+
Given an equivalent opportunity,
Goldwyn is just as willing to take
a whack at screen writers, most OF
whom he regards as hacks. In answer
to the direct question, How many
men are capable of writing satis-
factorily for the screen?, he says:
At am sorry to say, not many.
Certainly not enough for the guam
tity of pictures Hollywood is trying
to make. There are 1000 so-called
writers in the industry and I don't
think more than Is of them can
write q fine screenplay."
A nice follow-up question which
no one thought to insert in the
QUESTIONABLE submitted to Goldwyn
might well have been:
Out of an equivalent number OF
novelists, short-story writer's. or any
other kind Of author. do you think
you would find a higher percentage
than this?
Goldwyn probably would have to|
admit the chances Of such a dis
covery unlikely.
He is quality man as opposed to
quantity in any field, including that
Of truly gifted talent.
Goldwyn left his fellow producers
.ir one of the years deepest lathers
last December when he commented
on the excellence of foreign pic
lures as compared with the do
mestic product. Some of these made
sharp suggestion that the man
should learn to control his tongue,
that. after all, he was member OF
the club Of American movie-makers
and should observe the code.
Goldwyn remains, however, just
as willing as ever to express his
own opinions on any country's pic
lures. His two favorites among con-
