Hollywood Sights And Sounds SR e L By Robbin Coons May 17.—Cecil B. DeMille has conceded but he has held out for bringing HOLLYWOOD, Cal., that only God can make a tree, the mountain to DeMille. DeMille considered going to the mountain; of an exiensive location with costs of bringing nature home to Paramount; he thereupon decided to stay on his Hollywood throne and pass a miracle. The miracle has been under way for some days now, and it is one of C. B.s better ones. “Northwest Mounted Police” needed a mountain forest of tall trees. The picture also needed about 300 husky Indians, So C. B. is getting his forest and his Indians and brinzing them to Hollywood. The forest is covering approxi- mately half of Paramount’s 27 acres, and other DeMille sets are occupying six of the sound stages, which ought to make C. B sleep well these nights, foi nobody else is so colossal. he compared costs The studio has sent a motorcade of trucks to the Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead regions, and they're winding down those mountain roads loaded with forest pines, freshly felled and rang- ing in height from 30 to 100 feet. There'll be more than 300 of these beauties before theyre through “planting.” DeMille wants real Indians, and there aren’'t enough on Cen- tral Casting’s lists. He has scouts in Arizona and northeastern California rounding up the tribe The forest set, plus the Indians, will dent the budget about $150,000 worth—nothing compared with the cost of taking ry Cooper ©arroll, Paulette Goddard and other stars, / NOW 0 nfi({ receptien .

X The movie won't all be home work, however, has had his assoeiate, Art Rosson, in the San Jacinto mountains a month filming battle scenes, and Rosson has another location ahead where the San Joaquin and Stanislaus rivers meet in central California. The Master Earl Carroll is staying home, too, not quite as colossally as DeMille, but still home. Carroll’s night spot on Sunset is the daily scene of activities for “A Night at Earl Carrolls, and all the movie's interiors will be filmed on the actual scene, an ex- pedient probably necessary with DeMille spreading himself over the studio precinets. Only the club’s exterior has been constructed on the lot, this being considered a necessity inasmuch as the sight of a movie crwe working on a public street is always a traffic-stopper. _ The Carroll club is a movie studio by day and a club, as |'|ul by night. They clear out the arc-lights, the scaffolds, w cameras and mikes each afternoon in time for the opening stage show, which is just about what the movie is filming. So far as I know this is the first time a legitimate stage show ' has been filmed in its native haunt, but it isn't simply a matter mnpmmwlmunwuwwm«iana _and sing. ©h, no, it’s a regular sound stage technigue MM of \1h S TONIGHT; SOLID .
