- U. S. Wives Unimportant, . Gravet Contends French Actor Says French Spcuse Is Husband’s Constant Companion. By SHEILAH GRAHAM. QUEEN MARY—Southampton _ OLLYWOOD, Oct. 28 (N.AN.A. Hugo Restaurant. H United States will be when it between American and French wifehood. “The French wife is more importan! or English,” Fernand said. “What you® call the ‘stag’ party could never exist in France.

He knows his job better than any one else here. I'll make three pictures for him this year.” Le Roy and Gravet got together as a result of the French picture, “The Great Refrain,” which the director saw in Paris one summer afternoon in 1936. “I received a visit from a certain Mr. Le Roi—the French translation for Le Roy. I naturally didn't know who he was by that name. He didn't know I spoke fluent English and started the conversation something like this: ‘I'— pointing to himself—‘am film director.
