c+4 it MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE BY MOLLIE MERRICK. HOLLYWOOD, May 19 (NAN.A)— Chancing into a village restaurant late Saturday night, we met Victor Me- Laglen and heard some interesting things about that gentie, who has sur- vived both silents and talkies and still s going strong. McLaglen is the only person to be starred by his corporation for some time now. That flair for starring people hit Winfield Sheehan less hard than other members of the producing gentry. | But the man whose smile and he-man personality won so many adherents re- a::‘m this billing, and has for some e. Speaking of cinema lights, - Janet| Glxmyr is glimpsed about town now and again; out at Mapibu, where she loafs on the sands and accumulates a coat of tan; down at Palm Springs, where she looks over the land she re- cently bought with a view of building a Anywhere and everywhere but on the lot. Yet one hears there are new stories in preparation for her. Janet Gaynor took a stand about some stories in the past. Taking a stand isn‘t much of & stunt in Hollywood. Bad boys and girls who have things to say about the stories they are cast in and who object to cer- tain players in their casts often find themselves out and injured. And when one door closes in this industry, now and then all doors close. Producers play a close-in game. Actors and writers are always the opponents.

Charles Farrell meanwhile is being groomed to play the role of Liliom in | the talking production of Minar's play. It isn't exactly a Farrell role. Joseph | Schildkraut played it in New York, and the two men are as far rt as the | stars so far as acting technique is con- | cerned. Paul Muni has been put into the cast. |Muni, with a trained voice of great | beauty, isn't going to be a help to | Charlie Farrell. Well, that's the way | our talkies are made, and it's a case of | take it or leave it as far as the players are concerned. And*now, if you are in search of a laugh, Hollywood provides it with the news that several plays of Luigi Piran- dello have been bought for movie use. ‘That's good in itself, but back it up with the news that one of our most pretentious movie m is after the author himself to come and write from the studio, where he will be in touch with the supervising staff and where he will have an opportunity to get the close contact with the new art which he would need to successfully assimilate the needs of movieites. ‘The gentie who writes all about char- acters search of an author really should come to the Gold Coast. He could rub elbows with authors in search of a fortune. There’s (Copyright, 1930, by North Ame; s ey Alebeyrionn Wews- . Dent. . Grimace of contempt. Sun god. . Sun god. . Shots on the green.
