HOLLYWOOD, Cal, March 25. — Movie comedians took a fall — and not a comic one to them — when Jack Oakie failed to cop an Oscar for his work in “The Great Dictator.” For some reason the academy never has taken the screen’s funny men seriously, which may be one justification for the old gag that all the comics want to play Hamlet. Comedy in a char- acterization is on bar to Oscars (Walter Brennan, three-time winner, always injects humor into his performance) but’'comedy for its own sake gets the go-by. Chaplin, true, won a special award the first academy year— “for versatility and genius in writing, acting, and producing ‘The Circus.” Nominated for performance this year, the actor tra- ditionally regarded as the screen’s great artist was an also-ran to James Stewart. seems to have no prejudice against comedies per se — only agai those labeled comedians. Stewart's role in “The Philadelphia Story,” a camedy, was decidedly cn the funny side. Gable in “It Happened One Night,” Laughton in “Henry the VII,” Gary Cooper in “Mr. Deeds Goes to Town,” all were hon- ored for work in films either wholly or partly comic—but not as comedians. The answer could be a separate award hereafter: best performance by a comedian. Regardless of the balloting the nominations of Chaplain and Oakie served to remind the industry that the funny men are too often taken for granted, Oakie took the nomination as a boost for his side of the PERCY’S CAFE STOP ® DELICIOUS FOOD EFRESHMENTS AT PERCY'S CAFE Breakfast, Dinner or Light The academy for the business — “maybe,” he said, “theyll pay some attention now to fellowslike Skeets Gallagher —one of the best in the game.” He thought Oakie-for-Oscar ought to cheer up, to, a lot of the actors around town who can't get jobs. “There’s no sense to it,” he said. “I'd been in this busness more than 10 years and I was working all the time. Then came 1939 — and I wasn't woking any more. Nohody had a reason for it, T just wan't working. My agent made the rounds for me and he came back, time and again, to tell me nething doing. Then all of a sudden- Chaplin wants me, and I get into “Pin Pan Alley, and I'm ‘in’ again. It doesn’t make sense. Im no better now than I was-before.” Most of Oakie’s fellow-nominees, including the winners, have had the same experience! Ginger Rogers was “finished” before she started; Hepburn was “washed” white; Bette Davis was paeked for Broadway when she got her second chance; Hollywood let Laurence Olivier go back to England before reclaiming him. Brennan had years of obscurity in bits before clicking, and Jane Dnmell once brightly featured, was doing bits again before “The Cu'anes of Wrath” broyght her back. Osakie is right — it doesn't make sense and- it never will.
