HALL UNITED BROTHERHOOD OF CARPENTERS & JOINERS of America—Local 2247 Hollywood Sights And Sounds. By Rabbis Cose HOLLYWOOD, Cal., April 14—“It Can't Happen Here" is going to happen here, at last, ending three years during which the Sinclair Lewis novel has been an on-again but mostly off-again screen property. In those three years Hollywood has felt the pinch of foreign dictatorship and their rulings on Hollywood films, has held on where possible with its own policy of “market appeasement,” and only now—with the bleakest of prospects in the turbulent situation abroad—seems to be kicking over the last halters of dictator dictums. Metro, making “It Can’t Happen Here,” has kept a German market longer than most other studios—perhaps not too sur- prisingly when you consider the politically conservative nature of most of its films. Barring the toned-down “Idiot’s Delight,” it has hewed to the line of strictly-for-entertainment movies, following accepted formulas even in its recent patriotic outburst, “Let Free- dom Ring.” Nothing in this, except its title, could possibly offend the sensibilities of a dictator. Contrary to widespread belief, the Hays office had nothing to do with the “dropping” of “It Can't Happen Here" when the anti-dictator novel was first considered for filming. It was an economical problem: to film it at a cost low enough to assure a profit without counting on income from countries where it would certainly be banned. Knowing the Metro system, you may be sure the problem has been licked. They don’t make pictures just for fun out there. Meanwhile Hollywood is having a bit of a whirl at keeping up P o B ol At B st PERCY’S “sniffertest®—No.1... how'ss your “sniffer” today? It's easy to make sure that it's working O. K. Just stroll into PERCY'S at dinner time. If you find yourself surrounded by the most savory, fragrant aromas you've ever met why, your "sniffer” knows its way around. i with the fast--moving times. At least one picturé—Paramount's 2 “Air Raid"—has been postponed because in the midst of flw.; “heat” abroad it would be impossible to get essential b.ckmundz shots. i Walter Wangeér, who made last year's controversial “Blockade % has a script of “Personal History” Yeady to go—unless history out- runs the script. Writer John Howard Lawson already has been recalled once to re-vamp the Spanish war sequences in light of developments, may be recalled again if the war there is brought & to an end. : But this story, of an American boy who goes abroad and learns that freedom fis dead in most of Europe, is not on Wanger's immediate schedule. He's waiting, like many another producer with a hot subject, to see'if Warners' “Confessions of a Nazi Spy” stirs up too much trouble politically or enough cash returns to justify an investment in the same general anti-dictator idea i “The Sun Never Sets”—a title which some observers con- sider ironic in light of recent history-—is proceeding unchanged. A romance of the African Gold Coast, it's & modern exposition of the sacrifice and tremendously hard work involved in keeping the English flag flying over the far-flung empire. At history’s recent pace the story may take on the character of a memorial—but Director Rowland V. Lee sees no need for - changes in the script. England’s work in her colonies, he feels.' ' is always a great film subject.
