His refusal to sign one of the usual kind, which lets a studio do the picking, has cost him money, " he says, but he is content to go along as he is, taking a part when he likes it. And if you think Carminati, who became a starring attraction after “One Night of Love,” does not take his art seriously, hear his descrip- tion of the way he goes about de- ciding: “I cannot make up my mind in- stantly when I am handed a script,” he says in that accented voice which' helped him make his hit. ‘No, I take it home with me, and read it. Then I lay it aside, think about it. I try to decide first if I think it is a good play—this I do before I consider my part in it. I get the effect, the total effect of it. Then the next night I read it again, and think about it some more. Finally, if I have decided that it is good and that I can play the part honestly and sincerely, then I will say to the producer, ‘Yes, T will do it."" Won't Make Tesis But he will not make a test for the part. He did not make a screen test when Joseph Schenck brought him to Hollywood for ‘‘Moulin Rouge,” or for “Gallant Lady,” “One Night Of Love,” “Let's Live To- night” or “Paris In Spring,’ these being the five films about which he said to the producer, “Yes, I will do it." He has constituiional objections to tests. Why should he make one, he asked Schenck, when they had seen him on the stage, knew what he could do? Why * should he make tests for other pictures, when the directors could see him on the screen in his previous films? Surprised By Ocean i Tullio likes Hollywdod: ‘better this| time than he did when he was here in the silent days. Partly, he ad- mits, it is because he has been more successful in talkies. “But then the actor had nothing to do but make faces. He could not give his whole personality,” he explains. “From the moment I arrived on the talking picture set, I was interested—and T should have been interested even though the public had not been so kind. Even now I am always amazed by the, technical details in making pic- tures. I shall never forget my sur- prise at a preview when a scene showed Lillian Harvey and me on a boat in the ocean. I knew we were supposed to be on a boat, but at the studio there was no water. On water—an amazing process to create STARTS WORK ON | NEW TRAIL JOBS District Ranger W. A.

The new vehicle is “Half Angel” by Fanny Heaslip Lea “The Affairs of Cellini,” as those who saw “The Fire brand,” Edwin Justus Mayer's very successful stage play from which Bess Meredyth adapted the talking picture, will recall, is a sophisticated, romantic comedy. Both ' Constance Bennett and Fredric March bring a defin- ite flair for this type of comedy to their respective roles—Connie scored one of the biggest hits of her career in her preceding 20th Century picture, “Moulin Rouge,” which, although a musical comedy, was also in the sophisticated vein —and March won his place on the screen via his brilliant perform- ance in a similar role in the stage play, “The Royal Family,” and lat- er 1 ed to cinema fame in the film versicn of that play. mainder of the afternoon will ent informally and the guests invited to take advantage of many facilities for amusement fered at this splendid place Cars will again be provided at the church at 5 o'clock for the dinner to be served in the evening.
