..."I'll give you a SCOOP" said
Gene Kelly, Il plan to live
permanently in Hollywood" If
only more actors and directors

Sophia Loren has gained a
bit of weight. And on her, it
looks fine. . . And the rains in

Samuel BronstOn, as BELTS
the producer of eel Cid" and

make his movies. Alfred
Hitchcock, another gourmet, has
whole sides of Danish bacon
flown from Denmark to Holly
wood. And kippers from Scot

Lawrence of Arabia was noted
for his driving. But Peter
O'TOOle, who plays Lawrence in
the movie, had his license sus-

energetic, vibrant personality
when I met him in London.
