Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbin Cooms HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Feb. 25.—Confessions of a Hollywood spy in South America, or Good Neighbors and Newsreels: ! “I go to the movies frequently in my little Argentinian town. The cinema is the delight of us Americans there, and of the native sons also. “The Hollywood features are liked generally, although there is still some confusion, among the non-English-speaking residents when Hollywood sends them drawing-room dramas or stories in which much depends on diglogue. This is true even though the actors’ speeches are translated, through written titles, at the bottom of the screen. Hence pictures which English-speaking fans enjoy on their merits are practically lost on other patrons. “The features with American settings, purporting to show American life, are accepted by now as fiction—and allowance is made for them. I mean few South American fans—in our com- munity at least—believe twat the United States is entirely a land of gangsters where blood runs in the streets continually, or that * all the people of this country live as lavishly as some of the screen stories would indicate, or in as great hardship as some others would imply. They accept these stories as based on phases of our life in the United States. . . . “The newsreel, however—ah! the newsreels are gospel. They are fact, and so— “We Americans go to the theatre, and we squirm in anticipa- " tion as the newsreel flashes on. What horror shall we see tonight? 4 “Sometimes it is a hog-calling contest—this reached its zenith a high spot inyourda; by That's luncheon time at Pch ’ big plate. lunch served there daily for only forty cents is just the ticket to send you bcxck to your work wnh a new in clips on a contest to determine which United States mother ! could summon her offspring in the loudes} voice. . . . 3 “Then the wrestling bouts—between women. wrestlers. They are amusing to fans in this country, and are presented for laughs. But how the natives talk. Those North American women, they say, what will they do next? 4 “And the jitterbug contests. More than once we have sat through newsreels showing the gyrations of United Swhes boys and girls caught in the throes of swlng fever, and our ‘ears have burned. Around us we hear exclamations: ‘What horrible peo- ple! Do they ALL dance that way! Is there no dignity left among ‘our northern neighbors?’ . { “We have a commission here, my husband and I. As we travel about the country, we are to observe—for our friends back there —whether the ballrooms are given oyer to the jitterbugs, ‘whether all of us really dance so wildly. They really want to know. .. . “So far, though we have danced in New York and Chicago and San Francisco, we have seen nothing to compare with the frenzy the newsreels send down there. We understand, of course, that the newsreels present these things for their news value, because ° they are unusual. But our South American friends, 'm afraid, accept them ‘as typical pictures of life nmong their good nflggm nnd why must it be so?”
