Modern Screen (Dec 1931 - Nov 1932 (assorted issues))

Modern Screen Her stepfather would rave a little; I would try to calmly reason with her; and Ann would fly out of the apartment to Leslie. During one of these sessions my husband asked her : "What do you know about him ? From what I can learn he is a sort of vagabond . . . working just long enough to get money ahead to support him while he lives the life of a beachcomber in the South Seas ... or China ... or wherever he cares to go. Is that the kind of life you plan for yourself?" Ann's answer, dramatic and youthful, would sing through the apartment: "I want to be with him wherever he is !" Hp HERE were times when she would talk to me about Leslie. Other days Ann seemed to lock even his name in her heart. Although she seldom brought him to the apartment (probably because she felt we were opposed to the match) they spent every waking hour together. They went for long slow rides along the beach roads, and when Leslie would bring her home they sat parked in front of the building . . . talking, hour after hour. I could often hear the soft drone of their voices and see the flare of the cigarettes in the dark. One evening they called me up from one of the picturesque, secluded little cafes they frequented. They said they wanted to come up and talk to me. Ten minutes later I was listening to their pleas for my blessing to their marriage ! 'ihere is no denying the charm of Leslie Fenton. The moment he stepped into the apartment I felt it ... I knew what it was about him which had plunged Ann so deeply into love. He appeals so strongly to the imagination of women. There is about him none of the prosaic, every-day things that the average man brings into a woman's life. On the contrary, there is something almost fictional about Leslie. He is like one of the heroes in the novels of your favorite authoress. Nothing conventional, about his views of life, love, marriage or civilization. He loaths Hollywood and tolerates it only for the purpose of obtaining a "stake" which will see him through six months or a year of roving wherever he may choose to go. Yet as he sat there talking to me, keen flashes of his quick mind and wit dotting what he said, it seemed sheer tragedy that such an overwhelming love should have sprung up between these two. Ann had worked so hard for all the things that Leslie despised. Ann was soaring up in the Hollywood heavens, and Leslie's only desire was to be rid of all of it. I begged them to wait a year. "Wait for what?" asked Leslie. "Oh, to make sure that this isn't just a passion that won't bear up through marriage," I argued. "To make sure you really belong together." "Waiting won't prove anything we already know," said Ann. I tried to compromise with six months. Finally they agreed on three. A NN had just finished "Love Is a Racket" when, three days later, I received a call from a local airport A SKINNY FELLOW [ HASN'T A CHANCE. 1 WISH I COULD GAIN SOME FLESH Skinny!
