Mitchell, "Why did you make

Ross Was Lucky

TO answer your question on
why I made the picture--it

recognition. This. apart from
the fact that I had a chance
to, do some good for the youth
Of the world. And 1t was also

Of the Spanish people. He soon
learned that to do things the
Spanish way rather than to
impose Hollywood methods on
the Spanish would insure
smooth operation.
There's the matter of the
lunches" he said in illustra-
ton. Wed never think Of
serving any alcoholic beverage
with the box lunch for people
working on a location in this
country. But in Spain they
have to have vino with the
lunch. If you deprive a Span
lard Of it. it's almost enough TO
inspire a general strike. So
we gave them their wine"
1t was a Spaniard. too. who
gave Mr.. Kramer the title for
his movie. It is the film version
Of c. s. Forester's 1.-The Cum
but the producer knew that
would 60 as soon as he could
think Of something better.
Then one day. during the eight
months he spent In Spain be-

Il hope" said the man, "that
you capture the pride and the
passion Of these people," As Q
writer, Mr.. Kramer knew q fe-
licitous arrangement Of words
when heard it and he had his
title.
So Many lands"
There were moments, he
confessed. when he feared
that he might have to scrap
the title however much he
liked 1t. It was while he was
at work in Spain that a whole
spate of films with "and" titles
THE Power and the Prize"
THE Proud and the Beauti-
full" and so forth - was re-
leased. They're past now, how.
ever. and Mr.. Kramer is let
ting THE Pride and the
Passion" stand.
Another movie development
during his absence gave the
producer some cause for con-
Germ. This was the sudden
vogue for the mammoth three
hour movie. which caught him
without o three-hour movie.
A careful craftsman who plans
ahead, Mr.. Kramer does not
shoot six hours Of film and
then struggle to cut 1t down
to size. s.
~ All, Those Tourists
He has, in Pride and the
Passion" a movie that clocks
at 2:l2 and that's that. He "a
convinced that q motion pic
lures size is not the measure
Of its merit.
Curiously. the Spanish. un-
accustomed to invasion by
movie troupes on location, did
nots impede the work Of this
one by getting in the way.
The tourists were something
else.
The Spanish gave us no
trouble at ALL" said Mr.. Kra-
mer. But the American tour
lists were murder. They were
always coming out to the loca-
ton and latching onto our
caravan. Always some guy was
standing In line and getting Q
free lunch-just because he's

Of the picture for IS million.
He objects to the ads show
ing him about TO inject a

arm. Il was very upset with
him for sounding off," said
Mitchell. Il wanted to sue
Barney for hurting me. pro-

THE PASSING SHOW

Just Grew and Grew
BY HARRY MACARTHUR

6LdIlley hIdLllGI, WIlJcI
turned movie producer and
director. is slowly returning to
normal after the most taxing
movie-making siege he ever
involved himself in. He has
Just recently completed Aim
ing in Spain Of THE Pride
and the Passion" a project
which occupied more than two
years Of his life.
The film, which grew. to q
production Of epic proportions,
also became something of a
Frankenstein monster, he re-
vealed the other day on q
quick trip to Washington.
I'm not quite sure what
happened he said. This
started out TO be the personal
story of a few patriots involved
in a. war, then it grew and
grew. You get up on that
platform with 10000 extras
gathered below and it fills
you with q strange sense of
power. You know that one
signal from you can send them
charging OF in all directions.
DE Mile Is used to it," he
went on, but I'm not De Mile.
Tasted for the first time. this
power Is Q heady brew. We still
have the personal story, all
right. but now I think we have
. lot more. too"
Only IN Spain
Mr.. Kramer could have
made the picture he did-with
"a cast Of 10000" supporting
Sophia Loren. Cary Grant and
Frank Sinatra-only in Spain.
It cost Just under 81 million
and the movie-maker couldn't
estimate what it might have
cost in this country.
"I1l give you just one ex-
ample" he said. "In one Sc
quence we were using 10000
Spanish extras for six days at
50 each per day. In Holly
wood, at the lowest base figure,
it would have been $40 q day.
Actually it would have been
more, because these people
were running through explo-
sions. taking falls and doing
other things that automati-
cally raise the fee in Holly
wood.
But at the barest minimum,
1t would have been 100000
for extras for Just. one day.
In six days it would have
taken quite Q bite out Of the
budget"
Actual Settings
Another saving was In the
scenery. ~
I'VE used nothing but actual
settings - cathedrals. castles.
etc." said Mr.. Kramer. There
isn't q process plate or o mini
AZURE in the whole picture.
'It also helps If you are
making your picture in a die
tator country" the producer
asid later. "Once. for instance.
We wanted q line Of telegraph
poles and wires out Of the way
and we had no problem at all.
They were simply taken down
and then put up again when
we we're finished.
In one town we wanted to

Word Of Cheer
A parting word of cheer and
hope is passed along by this
expert to career-minded
youngsters who might be dis
couraged by what they see in
the mirror:
Always remember that while
you may not be photogenic,
you can be photographed to
advantage. Makeup. lighting
and a good camera can work
startling transformations.
That Is why newcomers to
Hollywood shouldn't worry too
much about their visual values,
but should pay more heed to

tribute from inside.
