of The Pacific Coast Viking

ALT Kjellin is now in Israel MAX
ing a picture for Stanley Kramer.
The picture is "The Juggler," star
ring Kirk Douglas and the lew
Italian find, Milly WHALE. Edward
Dmytryk is directing, and the
story is told around the time when
so many Jews returned to Israel
after World War II.
ALT Kjellin turned out a very
fine job for Stanley Kramer in
MY Six Convicts" and this pro-
Queer believes strongly in Kjellin's
ability to turn out just as good,
if not better, performances in any
other picture that is assigned to
him. Being restless soul, Aft has
not had quite enough work with
TV films to suit his ambition, nor
did his role in THE Iron Mistress"
as much as whet his appetite, so
he has had some quiet plans of
making films in Sweden, Africa
and other places. Kjellin just can
not stand being idle for too long.
He has been used to going from
one picture into the |next-and that
is what he intends to do again.
Greta Granstedt, Swedish ac-
tress in Hollywood since the silent
days, has been cast in Kramer's
THE Juggler." If another swede
is cast in the picture. they might
have to call it THE Yuggler.'
Marta loren just flew out of
Hollywood, too. She is now in
Rome, Italy, to pay the feminine
lead in Carmine Gal!one's Techni-
color film, THE Life of Puccini."
Gabrielle Feretti, said to be t h e
top male dramatic star in that
country will play opposite our
Marta. Leonardo Bercovici, whom
the Swedish star married a t
spring, is doing the screenplay.
Barbara Huttons son Lance,
whose father is Danish Count
Reventlow (now divorced from the
dime-store millionairess), has for
some time been working as mes
senger boy in Beverly Hills bust
ness office. The Count could GER
tainly be proud of his boy fol-
lowing the example of most veal
thy playboys around town. And his
eX-step-father, Cary Grant, wants
him to make his screen debut in
Dream Wife" l will report fur
Their on this.

toners in Norway, they have to be
reasonably good - and this usu-
ally involves approval beforehand
by state censors = in order to
break even or pay off. This is
deemed rather problematical if the
production cost is above $4,000
crowns. Matchmaking was more
profitable before World War II,
but the subsidies are now paving
the way for more productions.
Films of Ibsen Plays
However, within the prescribed
financial limit, the Norwegians
are mapping out some interesting
films for the future. Muller plans
to do one in technicolor about Nor
wegian shipping, showing how
young deck hand gradually works
himself up to the position of ship
owner. The biggest productions
will be made by foreigners with
James Cassidy, American produc-
er, making a series of films of Ib-
sens plays. Swedens Europa Film
is scheduled to produce a movie
on the life of Edward Grieg.
Sweden, by the way, is the lead
ing movie-producing country in
Scandinavia and has achieved the
most notable successes on the
world market.
Morse Newsreels in u. S.:
l asked Muller what could be
done about introducing more Nor
wegian movies in America. What
about distribution of Norsk Film
revy, Norwegian newsreels, in AM
erica for showing among Norwe-
gian- Why not give
them a continuous pictorial ac-
count of current events and de-
velopments in the homeland, at a
nominal fee, if any?
Muller replied that Norsk Film
revy has an agreement with Tele
News Production international
News Service) in New York,
granting the American company
sole rights to American use and
distribution of the Norwegian
newsreels. Thus arrangements for
releases among Norwegian organ
izations in America must be made
through that company.
But Muller is inclined to believe
that such arrangements could be
made very cheaply and suggests
that Norwegian-Am inter-
ested in such a project contact
kalbjorn Hellander of Norsk Film,
kirkevein SO, Oslo, Norway. Choice
newsreels could be punched to-
'gether for say, two or three ma
tion-wide showings a year under
the auspices of a national organ
izatiop like Sons of Norway.
Paul Skjonberg, whom l refer
red to in the beginning. is married

Werner last winter and was feted

At present there are $4,000 ex-

"Nodlanding' Hit at Film Festival
Randi Kolstad and Espen Skjon-
berg went through all the motions
of a frustrated couple trying to
make the best of it. In between
scenes, I chatted with Miss Kol-
stad, pleasant actress who had
just returned from the Interna-
tional Film Festival in Cannes,
France, where the Morse hit, mod
landing" was shown to apprecia-
tive audiences. 1t looks like it will
be rewarded with Norwegian
government prize.
Is she going to Hollywood :?
(Some American movie men had
taken an interest in her at the
film festivaD.
No, she said, she was perfectly
happy to make her bid for movie
stardom in Norway.
1t appears THAI quite number
of Scandinavian movie stars have
received Hollywood offers, but
have refused to accept on the
grounds that the offers would not
result in immediate work or suit
able roles.
Really, the future looks bright
err in Norway" Muller said.
Yet, the financial part of movie
making in Norway is still quite in
volved and delicate. Actually,
Norsk Film, the main organization
of the movie industry, is subsi-
died almost entirely by the Nor
wegian government. s.
The Subsidized Films
There is government film
fund of 10 million crowns from
which Norsk Film receives leans
for it's movies, normally budgeted
for a maximum total of $4,000
crowns per film. The government
lops off 400 of the box office re-
ceipts for an entertainment tax,
and nearly all the clear profit is
returned for future investments.
The governments surplus prof
it goes to social welfare purposes,
helps defray maintenance of NUM-
cipally owned and operated thea
ters that abound in Norway, etc.
There are also private hackers
that mainly foot initial costs to
get things rolling, but apparently
they would or could not risk TAX
ing the entire burden upon them
selves. Matchmaking in Norway
is a risky business and with, say,
three or four feature-length movies
produced a year for showings to
only about 100000 to 500. 900 GUS

Walthall- Taylor
Darkness Signal
For Slow Down
death travels dark roads"

death travels dark roads"
Chief H. S. Weaver used this
grim reminder today in warning
local motorists of the dangers of
driving after dark.
On a mileage basis, two to three
times as many fatal accidents
occur in the hours of darkness
as in daylight hours, according to
the National Safety Council. Be-
cause of decreased visibility, mo-
torists driving at dark or dusk
cannot see traffic hazards as
quickly as they can when driving
in daylight.
To combat these night traffic
hazards and thereby reduce the
high fatality toll caused by traf-
fic accidents after dark Chief
Weaver asked motorists to care
fully heed the following:
Slow Down - Speeds considered
safe in daylight are often too
fast for safety in dusk and
darkness.
Slow Down-At night your vision
is limited by the range of your
headlights. Drive 80 you can
stop within the distance you
can see ahead.
Slow Down-Be sure you dim your
lights for the other fellow. When
car approaches, slow down.
Your eyes cannot adjust instant
ly from the lights of the other
car.
Slow Down - Unnoticed fatigue
may reduce alertness, skill, per.
ception and ability to react
quickly. "Slow down., in thi;
case, means stop and rest.
"Don't be in such a hurry tx
reach the end of the road" hi
added. "Slow down at sundown!"
