That Is the Dim View Phyllis Calvert Takes

age of 16, Joined the British June
Dancers. Soon she was stepping in
the London musical comedy, "She
Shall Have Music"
Noel Started Things.
She won her big chance in the
West End of London with a play
called "A Woman's Privilege II
ran only two weeks but, at last
Calvert was a name-small, but q
name, nevertheless.
London screen tests followed, but
no one got excited.
Noel Coward saw Phyllis in play
Punch and judy" and signed her
for the second lead with him in
This Happy Breed"
Then things started to happen
The British movie industry, which
had turned her down coldly, sud-
denly became interested. Gains
borough Films signed her for the
lead in They Came BY Night
She scored heavily.
It was James Mason who helped
her ride to fame on the English
screen. After appearing with him
in THE Man in Grey" she went
into series of smashing successes,
including 1000 Women" Fanny
BY Gaslight," Madonna of the
Seven Moons" "They Were Sisters" "
Men of Two Worlds" The Magic
Bow" and Root of All Evil"
In late 1916 Phyllis made her first
visit to Hollywood and starred with
Robert Hutton and Ella Raines in
Time Out of Mind" She would
like to forget that. So would Uni
versal, who made it. The fans who
saw it would like their money back.
The picture was that bad. Actually,
I came over only as a guinea pig to
report on how the international
exchange of stars was working out, -
she explained.
No Dignity.
1t apparently was doing all right
for, in spite of that dismal American
debut, Paramount was quick to
realize Phyllis possibilities and
latched on to her. Personally, Miss
Calvert is a lf-effacing character
and seems downright deprecating-
too much so for her own profess
sional good, perhaps.
They're still chuckling over the
episode at her home a few weeks
ago. George Brown, publicity di-
rector. who had an idea that she
should be built up on a very
dignified plane, wanted pho
tographers to go out and shoot
PORTRAITS of the English actress in
her very severe library.
When the lensmen arrived, she
was doing cartwheels along the
edge of the swimming pool and
breaking this stunt up with jack
knife dives. The cameramen shot
so pictures of these acrobatics and
forgot the staid interiors. When
Brown saw the results, he almost
leaped over his desk. But he put
the stills out, just the same.

Years. I want them, and the babies
to grow up normally and in the same
way as other youngsters, studying
the same things, taking part in the
same sports and good times. They
already have their home studies,
their own little responsibilities
around the house, and they have
their dog Pupschen, a little dachs-
hund. Right now they are having
a wonderful time helping the nurse
with the babies.
Because I'm afraid they might get
false ideas about glamor, I seldom
permit them to come to the movie
sets. During the filming of Daisy
Kenyon" I did make an exception.
When Christina finished schol, she
decided she wanted to go to summer
camp. She had only a few days in
between and I let her come on the
set so that we could be together
more.
Because my pictures lately have
dealt with adult problems, haven't
permitted Christina or Christopher
to see them. Christina amused me
the other day when she came to
me before she went to camp and
said, Mother, I don't even know
what Mildred Pierce did" She still
doesn't.
But getting back to the love they
have grought me, I just had a note
from her. 1t said: "Mummie dear
est got the candy 1t was beauti-
full. I love you"
It's little things like that which
bring me more joy than all the
praise that follows a role well done
Their love constantly reminds me
that If "the worlds STAGE" the
stage is not the world.
I'm terribly, terribly happy that
they have adopted me.

HOLLYWOOD.

We were privileged, a short time
ago, to sit in on one of Holly
woods oldest conferences-a mass
interview of new picture star by
the several score press agents who
will sing her praises for the next
five years. 1t was question-and-
answer battle with no holds barred
When the dust settled, an attrac-
tive redhead, Phyllis Calvert, was
acclaimed an easy winner.
Miss Calvert is the well-knowr
star of Madonna of the Seven
Moons" and dozen other English
films. She arrived in Hollywood
under Paramount contract, for a CO.
starring role with Melvin Douglas
in MY Own True Love-" and
brought along enough British poise
and charm to sweep 40 f1acks of
their feet in one sitting.
"Ill answer everything quite
frankly" the actress told the boys
gathered at the long conference
table. But reahlly. you'll find me
quite dull"
That was a smasher for an open
ing remark. This frankness i'm
mediately endeared the young lady
to the ballyhoo artists. At the same
time it alarmed them. They had
received the word that big things
we're planned for this newcomer
Their job was to show the public
that this sincere, well-mannered
woman was the most glamorous,
exciting creature of the century.
Wouldn't Touch Radio.
Frantically, they began to shoot
queries: What do you do for recrea-
ton? Any exciting hobbies
Do you like hot dogs? .
Night clubs? :. What sort Of roles
do you want to play? Who is
your favorite American actor?" Ad
ininitum.

Just when it began to look like
the boys work would be difficult, it
dawned on them that this Calvert
person was a first-class exploitation
possibility, all five-feet-f1ve of her
She would need no special build-up
no flossy tailoring. Just turn her
loose, let her be herself. Looks
charm and talent would see her
through the Hollywoods, they de-
cided.
That's where the matter was al
lowed to rest. From there on in
the question centered on Calvert as
she really is-no some fictional
creature to be fashioned with lenses
and superlatives.
It developed, during the hours
inquisition, that she began her
career with Ellen Terry, the i'm
mortal tragedienne, in a theatrical
school play at the age of 7. Despite
this auspicious beginning, she
sought dancing honors and, at the
