She | was photographed at Palm Springs, Sights And Sounds By Robbin Coons | HOLLYWOOD, Cal, April 23— | There’s nothing like “crossing the | bar” to bring out a script writer's ingenuity or expose his lack of it. In movies of city life the bar ap- | parently ‘has to be crossed in every | seript. The easiest way is to have !'the character step up and say | “Scotch and soda.” If the American { whiskey people have done any good | for themselves, he’ll say “bourbon 'and soda.” (The latter represents | fairly neutral ground.) But the | character gets his drink and that's | all there is to it. | A common approach is to have | the character step up and say “Double Scotch and sodo”—usually | to indicate that he is flabbergasted, | has been disilusioned about his best girl (Henry Fonda in “The Lady | Eve”) or simply can't take it any longer without inside aid. Brian Aherne in “The Man Who | Lost Himself” plays a non-drinker | who has learned he has been dou- i ble-crossed by a pal. He rushes forthwith to the bar. The usual ;“Doub!e Scoteh” is given this vari- |ation: The hero lays his money | down, asks how many drinks it will (buy, is told six. “Put ‘em all in | one glass,” he orders. He singles out a huge brandysjinhaler (comedy prop), and therefrom proceeds to | get spifflicated. of bar-crossing technique) of an- other reliable formula, by which | the hero orders six to a dozen drinks !and has them lined on the bar in | front of him. During this procedure | the barkeep usually looks nonpluss- ‘ed and shakes his head, which is odd, because .if he'’s, geen. mavies he ought to bs’;ued mflt‘;w The bar in the terns is longer | west is | This is a variant (to the student | fellow students' code of honor 59.

Yes, it's Shirley Tem- | | Cal,, as she set out for a " e adm | erns it serves as a place for brawls, as an excuse for somebody to yell, “The drinks are on me,” as a place for Gene Autry to prove he's a nice boy by drinking water, milk, or soda-pop. The heavy is the one who growls, “Gimme that bottle,” thus intimidating the barkeep, who al- ways ducks behind the counter when the shooting begins. The bar mirior is shorter-lived in the westerns than anywhere else. | In “Arise, My Love,” the bar scene | was given novelty by Ray Milland's ! ! order of champagne with creme de | menthe for Claudette Colbert. The 4 script’s praise for the drink led a number of movie patrons to try it— and complain. Nobody had tried the | mixture before it was “glorified” in the film. Moral: You can't trust | movie drinks. Serip writers are | sometimes imaginative souls, and there’s no challenge like an array of fancy bottles — even in imagination. In “The Night of January 16" Bob Preston tells how ta¢ make an “orange daiquiri.” A friend of Bob’s jotted down the script’s recipe and followed directions.
