AMU ‘Saratoga” Again Justifies Those Odd Film Methods P Shooting of Sequences i Gives Picture Credibility—Guild to Use Caiifornia 23 stance, was completely non-plussed in director began to shoot the picture at the very climax of the action. To any to = one who orderly had been accustomed building, whether it be of | character or baby’s blocks, it seemed | wildly disconcerting. It had neither rkyme nor reason. But it worked out | quite all right and Meredith came back from Holiywood with & vast ad- miration for the essential sanity of the men who can begin at the end and work back to the beginning It is the same apparently haphaz- ard technique of production which | landed “Saratoga™ in town this week guch a neatly-finished product that it is virtually impossible to detect fill-ins caused by the death of Jean Harlow.

Eventually they were finished with deft directorial touches | €0 patching them into the action that thev are viitually imperceptible One may think after seeing the film that the failure to detect them Is due to engrossment with the pic- | ture. Tt is true that it has a quality of suspense that diverts attention from even so interesting a detail as the effort to efface the hand of death upon the film. But it is also true that going back a second time fails to disclose any conspicuous flaws in the sleight-of-hand by which the shadow of the so-called grim reaper was re- moved. The reason one sees Miss Harlow in the final scene of the film is that that sequence was shot when the pie- ture was but half completed. It lends complete credibility to the drama however incredulous the spec- tator may he should be. feel illogical way hat makes the | mportant fellow the movie lots.

Starting next Summer, the guild is going to turn California into a production base. It will take two plays to the Coast for tryouts, four- | week tryouts divided between Los !

When the guild finished counting up the dol- lars-and-cents production cost of the Pacific Coast opening of that drama | it found the figure to be about half | what it would have been in N(‘“' York. That started the guild think- | Inz. just as it would you or your Uncle John. It was a very pleasant | adventure in thinking, and the guild | Kept it up until it arrived at several other interesting conclusions. One of the latter was that plays need it can be doctored into good health under California’s sun Without giving them an unsavory rep- utation in the East. Errors in casting which result in loud moans when a play opens in these parts can be corrected out there before the moans can be heard all the way across the continent. | Then, and importantly, the quild | has discovered that there is no place in the world so thoroughly famished for the legitimate stage as is Cali- fornia. Even bad plays have a better chance there than anywhere else, and good ones, tae only kind the guild ever intends to produce, can make money by the scad. Every one in California of course has scads of money. So the guild is goinz out there for the Summer next year | i hree T eams Separated HILE their for one picture only actors are creating est working mary partners in forth- ne pictures.

Now Astaire will star alone with a leading woman yet to be selected in A Damsel in Distress.” The Oliver Hardy-Stan Laurel part- nership is equally interesting. For 11 ¥ears they have been co-stars. Now Hardy is to appear in “Road Show" without Laurel In the past, many teams have ac- quired fame and then sphit with suc- cess for both stars. Among them are Janet Gavnor and Charles Farrell, | Greta Garbo and John Gilbert, Victor McLaglen and Edmund Lowe. Dick Powell and Ruby Keeler and Wheele, &nd Woolsey. w In direct contrast to those stars who gain popularity through teamings are the actors who appear with l variety of feminine stars. Clark Ga- | ble has been co-starred frequently with the same actress, but has had more than a dozen co-stars in his career. Robert Taylor has been with | the same heroine only twice—Eleanor | Powell and Barbara Stanwyck.
