Rita Is Mason's S
Only Choice
For 'Trilby'
By SheiIoh Grohom

Margaret O'Brien's mother has
promised her daughter that she will
not marry any one until Maggie is
IA years old!
The strange promise happened
this way. A week ago Don Sylvio,
the New York orchestra leader, flew
to Hollywood to ask Mrs. O'Brien to
marry him. Its the third or fourth
time he's asked me- Mrs. O'Brien
tells me, land I like him very much.
But I refused him because Mar
garet begged me to wait and not
marry him or any one else until she's
a."
Rita Hayworth is the No. choice
for "rrilby" when James Mason
stars as Svengali in the Jessy Lasky
property. When I talked with Ma
son again, he told me that the deal
still is very much on for him to do
the picture. THE only girl I can
see for Trilby is Rita Hayworth." )"
To get Rita, Mason will have to
make the picture at Columbia.
Ava Gardner is Estelle Taylor's
choice to play her when that major
studio films the life story of Jack
Dempsey. The deal is getting close
to the signing stage.
Lizabeth Scott's sister Justine is
in town and out for movie career.
Both Paramount and Warmers are
testing her Says Lizabeth: "She
isn't any threat to me because she's
such a completely different type" :
Gertrude Michael is doing such a
magnificent job of emoting in her
preliminary tests for Flaming
Road" that Producer Jerry Wald is
planning to use her in two more of
his movies. Miss Michael always
was a good actress.

Ray Milland has been under con-
tract to Paramount for IA years. He
says that in all that time he never
has refused picture-until THE
Mask of Lucretia." He does not
think he should have been suspended
for that. Ray now is talking out
loud about consulting lawyers.
The Carole Lands estate will have
to find $4,000 to return to Eagle
Lion. This was the sum paid Carole
in advance for a picture she was
supposed to do for them. I under

instance, this correspondent learned
that it was three minutes from the
Casbah (and Charles Boyer and
Hedy Lamarr) to a quiet street in
Brooklyn which, at that particular
moment, was ghost town. Park
avenue was an equally near neigh
Dor of rice paddy in China, and
the occupants of what was Hitler's

wood got all the money to buy the
world as If it actually were an
oyster.
Well, Hollywood does not have
enough money to buy the same
things now. A new word has crept
into it's thinking and its production
vocabulary.
That word is "impressionism."
An impression of thing, to which
impressionism refers, is far less ex-
pensive than in imitation of the
same thing. or its effective repro
duction. In fact, there are
designers in Hollywood who are
Evening star., 1948-08-30

prepared to prove that It is only
from one-flfth to third as costly
to create an impression of place,
a period, or whatever as to make
is resemble the real.
Any resort to impressionism will
require that Hollywood shall as
sumo something about its public
that it is most reluctant to do,
namely that it has an imagination.
Economy, however, is likely to
drive it to the test and with the
result that Hollywood might learn
that its audience has more imagi-
nation than Hollywood itself.
That could revolutionize movie
making.
A sign of autumn fluttered onto
the drama desk today in the shape
of a registration blank from the
production workshop of the Mount

basic aspects of theater.
Six courses are described. They
are construction, lighting, design
