Lying on a cot in the next room in a log cabin, he allowed his feet to stick out into camera range to create the impression that he was there. It was all a part of a day's work in “Salomy Jane.” Sam Wood is convinced Bluebeard must have had a tough time picking eight wives. Recently he began pick- ng a cast for “Bluebeard’s Eighth Wife,” knowing in advance Gloria Swanson would be the eighth. It took weeks to find the other seven.
