Maureen Q'Sullivan may not be able to see him, but that does not prevent John Garrick from kissing only^er cheek. Nowadays, they say, innocence is bliss Chevalier Himself (^Continued from page 33) young Frenchman is very different from the old-time type. He looks American. He is clean-shaved and clean-cut, and he combines the French wit with the American humor. "There is a great difference between them. French humor I would describe as a smile with a tear behind it. American humor is a smile with a laugh behind it. Do you understand?" He smiled encouragingly and went on groping for words to make himself clearer. "The French humor is with thoughts," he said, with knitted brow. "The American humor is something you can see. "The old-time Frenchman could understand just a little of American humor, but beyond that he had no idea what it meant. Now he can understand most of it. "Because I was a comedian, because I was a dancer, I went around with the boys, and 1 learned that American spirit. "My English has improved a little, of course. I know a little better where to put the intonations. At first I talked English with the French singing intonations. Now I can put them nearer the right place. But I still have an accent. It's true, the studio didn't want me to lose it. But if they had said, ' Mr. Chevalier, here is a contract for a million dollars if you lose your accent' — I would still have my accent! I cannot help that." Contrary to the rumors, he didn't seem to use any slang at all. "Oh, not with ladies!" he protested. "But on the set, among men, I talk a lot of slang. Hot slang — how do you call it? Slang that is not very nice. "You think I cannot swear." He said it with a challenge. "Once I had a contest, with an electrician who has a reputation in the studio for swearing better than anybody. I won. " But 1 didn't learn that in America. The first English I learned was in the war, from the American soldiers. They taught me to swear. Before 1 knew how to say, 'Good morning, how are you?' I knew all the bad words. Then I came to America; and sometimes men, when they get together, talk bad words just for fun. So you see 1 have very complete instruction in that. "I will never be the American business man — that is foolish. But I have learned a great deal from living in America. Everyone should spend part of the year on each continent. They are entirely different, like different worlds, and it helps you to understand everything." I think Chevalier has changed very little. He is still talking about Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, and still prefers them to all others. He has worked hard to reach his present position, and terribly resents anyone who threatens his dignity. His sense of humor does not come to his rescue at such a time. "I am a very funny fellow — " he said, "I have to be very frank. For my own little dignity, I can't say anything that I don't absolutely mean. I think the American public is immense. They have made me very happy. They are very cruel, but very fair. When they like you, they express it, they say so, they make you feel like one of them." Chevalier loves and treasures the worldwide fame that pictures have brought him, and never ceases to be amazed by it. He is one star who confesses to reading all the fan magazines, and can even tell one from another. Only one bad article has ever been written about him — a piece called "Monsieur est Fatigue," written by a man ivho saw Chevalier at the end of a hard day, 'and mistook exhaustion for snobbishness. "I don't mind what people say about me," Monsieur protested gently, "but 1 like justice. I know my little bad things, my little weaknesses — everybody has those — and though 1 would rather not read about them, it does not make me angry. But unfairness I do not like. This fellow didn't say anything very bad — because I didn't do anything very bad except to be tired. But he tried to say I was putting on the high stuff. "I am not angry, because those things help you to keep your balance. You read the good things and you think, 'Well, I am pretty fine,' and it is good to read something hy someone who doesn't like you. It does no harm. It doesn't matter to the people who like you. They will be loyal— until they don't like you any more." 96
