Acid Mitchum, Now Free Man,
Takes Bitter Look at Life

"Now I'm going to write some
pictures for myself. And my

does HE know?' Now they'll

write his own musical-and
his own Western and his own
crime picture.

"A columnist keeps insist
ing I'm too robust to play the

I feel very we'll, but I guess Ill
have to get sick or something"
Enjoyed One Role
Also on Roberts busy sched-
ule-a lot of recordings. He
couldn't do this under his RKO
contract.
I'm a miracle of survival"
said Mitchum. my 10 years
at RKO were a darn valuable
apprenticeship. But in all
that time there was only one

Now won't be able to blame

Mitchum among the 10 most

Robert rates Marilyn's intelli-

"She knows this; I've told her

gent person, and this person.
ality should be utilized"
Robert told me he is sleep
ing better since he became a
free lance. II have something
to do now. I guess I'll have to
start my own company to take
care of everything"
The star is a different man
at home with his wife Dorothy.

when he attends parties. He's

HOLLYWOOD.

"All you need to be a movie
star Is to be well trained; look
at Lassie and Rim Tin Tin.
I was looking at Robert
Mitchum. now q big-shot pic
ture operator. receiving $780,
600 for 10 weeks work plus a
third Of the profits from his
current picture.
Finally free of his 10-year
deal with Howard Hughes and
RKO, Robert was paid $4,000
a week during the last two
years of the contract. Over
the 10-year period, he made
close to SIS million. But he is
bitter because Hughes sus-
pended him for several months
when he refused to make
Cattle Queen Of Montana"
with Barbara Stanwyck.
''It was ridiculous to expect
me to-" said Robert on the set
of his current Night of the
Hunter -. 60, - V
Just a SoIesmon -...,'s'3.-yss.
"They got rid Of a lot Of bad
material on me when was at
that studio. They sold me
down the river. I was a sales
man for them"
Robert was also suspended
for refusing the Dick Powell
role with Debbie Reynolds in
Susan Slept Here" That
picture was a big hit.
Now he'll be salesman for
himself. "The Track Of the
Cat" for John Wayne's COM Z
pany, was the. last he made
under loan-out from RKO.
Today he has to pick his own
and he's still worried. "Some
ones always asking me to do
something" he moaned, when
odW 41A1u az OllC dul GlCSOly
party for Lillian GiSh.
I asked him If he'd been
able to save any of his huge
salary. Not much. I gathered.
But I paid Howard
Hughes back the $4,000 he
loaned me to buy my house in
Coldwater Canyon. And I was
stuck for $4,000 in lawyers
fees that time" when he
tangled with the law on a mar
coticS charge.) Add to this the
$65,000 he lost to an abscond-
ing business manager.
Future Brieher
But the financial road ahead
looks bright. John Wayne
wants him to be one of his
partners. So does Paul Greg
ory. who is batting Robert
with the lead in 1.-THE Naked
and the Dead"
Very few people know that
Mitchum can write. He even
sold a few pieces at the be-
ginning Of his working life.

The Passing Show
A Matter Of Direction
Kozon and OphuIs Films Within Same Week
Emphasize Screen as Directors Medium

courage Of the people involved.
In this fashion, "on the
Waterfront" becomes a story
told the Kazan way which is
not to be confused with any
other directors way or attrib-
uted to anything other than
his supreme command over his
material.
) "The Earrings Of Madame
De" is as definitely marked
as an Ophuls picture. This
is an excerpt from the life Of
the frivolous COS In Paris. a
tale Of romance involving two
unlikely men-an aristocratic
general and q disciplined Dip
lomat-in a triangle whose
apex Is represented by the
generals wife.
Situation Trivial
The situation, essentially
trivial and conventional and.
indeed, quite overworked, is
the more challenging to Ophuls
for all these basic frailties. 1t
gives him a chance to examine
the improbable, even absurd,
consequences of a small. ex-
pedient lie told by a pretty
woman suddenly faced with
the choice between love and
loyalty.
Because Ophuls is so deft in
his search of the natures of
these characters and the back
ground of their behavior, and
because his players are so
extraordinarily cerne d,
Madame De's earrings become
baubles of incredible dramatic
consequence.
In view Of their great ability
to stamp their work with their
own great directoral gifts,
without the aid of oversize
screens or color. it would be
interesting to see what Kazan
and Ophuls could do on the
midget screens Of television.
Which. as a cynic around the
office keeps saying, is an adver-
tiSing medium.
