| it has in store for Samuel Goldwyn's
1.-The Best Years Of Our Lives. II
that screenplay repeats its success in
winning the New York Critics Circle
PLAGUE, it should settle once and
for all that the Academy Is free
from some of the base motivations
of which it is accused.
All this is because of Mr.. Goldwyn.
In his most placid moods, he is
never a candidate for popularity
among his fellow motion picture
makers. He has never inspired his
colleagues with anything resembling
feeling of good old Sam" In the
fashion of rugged individualists, he
has walked alone and liked it, and
never given a thought to the circum-
stances that it might not make him
likeable.
Moreover, at such times as he has
felt like it, Goldwyn has spoken
out freely against Hollywood and its
wares.
Never did he do so more en-
phatically than in connection with
the premiere of his latest picture in
New York. Contrary to the unWrlt-
ten rule of the trade, that a man
may speak in behalf of his own pic
ture as enthusiastically as he
wishes but should not condemn the
works of his competitors, GoldWyn
fairly blurted what was on his mind.
Hollywood, he declared, was dry
of IDEAS" and, come to think OF 1T,
English studios were in reverse
phase and producing far better pic
lures.
This was shocking thing for Sam
to have said, rejecting as it did
upon the whole industry, and at a
time when the competition. with
forerign cinema was more embar-
RAISING than it ever has been.
Nothing could have been more
profoundly calculated to take votes
away from him and "The Best Years
of Our Lives" if it actually is true
that votes are cast on any basis but
the actual dramatic merit of motion
pictures.
That is why great many followers
of Academy routine are particularly
interested in this years balloting.
X X 4 X
It is a rather surprising fact that
no Goldwyn production ever has
won an Academy Award. He has
made some of the most memorable
of screen drama, the most talked-of
pictures of their respective years.
but none of them ever has copped
the highly priced Oscar. A number
of GoldWyn releases are much easl-
er to recall than their prize-winning
competitors, such pictures as "These
Three" Dead End" "Wutherlng
Heights" but they garnered no
Academy laurels.
If memory is playing no tricks,
the closest Goldwyn ever came to
too honors was in the award to
william Wyler for his direction OF
"Wuthering Heights" He, inciden-
tally, is also director OF the current
GoIdwyn candidate, and there Is a.
possibility that he may repeat his
success while his picture repeats the
Goldwyn almost" performance. y
There are always a number OF
amused cynics who cannot see how
the best directed picture can avoid
being the best picture, but that has
happened on numerous occasions.
It could happen again.
