McNEIL OF MUSIC 1112 V Wilshire, Santa Monica, Calif I continued from page 60 times known as Mr. Gilmore, but it didn't bother me. I'm only vain about both of us — not one of us. We did a Mr. and Mrs. act in the early days of TV and we were the producers, writers, directors and performers of the show. I might also add we were terrible. "Life wasn't easy for us in those first years of our marriage," he continued. "I'd contracted tuberculosis and the doctor told me I'd have to go away to Arizona and rest for three years. Instead, I borrowed a house from a friend in Mount Kisco, New York, and stayed there three months, curing myself completely through inner disciplines. We lived on Virginia's unemployment pay. And when that gave out, for three days we ate nothing but rice. Then I dusted off my old guitar and went begging for a job — any kind of job. I got it — a $400-a-week-one — the lead in 'Lute Song' on Broadway. I was a pioneer in television production and then I went into 'The King And I.' "In Hollywood, some of our old friends were disappointed that we didn't live like movie stars with Cadillacs marked 'His' and 'Hers.' But it is enough to be a king before the cameras. Our house is tiny, the kind you can go away from and forget. I am a simple, hard-working man with simple tastes in food. I seldom go out socially, and I have no interest in being a member of the playboy set. When you've gone out once, I say, you've gone out for all time." While it is true that the Brynner house north of Beverly Hills is a small, modest place, it's not quite accurate to label Yul Brynner as a modest, retiring person — a "shy man" as he likes to say. He employs high-priced publicity people to keep the "devoted husband and family man" image green; he stays only in the finest hotels, dines in the best restaurants and he drove a 12-cylinder, $11,000 custom built Alfo Romeo. Later he changed to a sleek, low-slung Mercedes with YB prominently displayed in the New York license plate. Yul is a gourmet, even has an electric rotisserie installed in his studio dressing room where he prepares his own lunch. On the dressing room door is a sign "IT RHYMES WITH SINNER." At noon he relaxes there in a hammock, wearing a specially custom-designed zippered coverall and soft moccasins. And woe betide any studio worker who dares to disturb The King at rest! A man of sudden, intense angers who can issue commands like a top sergeant, this highly controversial actor can also display real sensitivity to people's feelings. Frank and blunt in criticism, he has a habit of stamping his feet and using broad gestures when he's emphasizing a point. An egghead in more than one sense, he is an intellectual who speaks seven or eight languages and has studied at the Sorbonne in Paris. He can be a charming conversationalist when th< mood strikes him. But his moods art completely unpredictable — at times he"; very high; at others, sunk in gloom. Yul admits he sleeps only five hours i night and friends agree he eats like i starving wrestler. He maintains a wash board stomach and the silhouette of i classic Greek statue yet he wolfs dowr five and sometimes six meals a day start ing with a breakfast of steak, fried pota toes, apple pie and cheese. He's a highly complex personality, this most exciting of male stars, even though he likes to call himself an "average clean-cut Mongolian boy." And because he is so complex, each person who knows him seems to come away with a different version of Yul Brynner. But all are agreed that there is intense rapport between him and his son Rocky. In view of the marriage break-up, this is an additional sorrowful matter for father and son. Rocky is a carbon copy of his dad with the same chunky build, same intense dark eyes. Friends have observed that they spend time together with a special understanding, a wonderful intimate rapport. Earlier, fathers of Bel-Air public school boys reported that Yul regularly attended Cub Scout meetings with Rocky and that the handsome actor rubbed sticks, tied knots and worked for merit badges with the same intensity he bestowed on his philosophical research. "Rocky," Yul said proudly, "is really a wonderful boy. He's an expert water skier and could ski when he was three years old. I want him to be a good athlete, to develop his body, and I'm pleased, too. that he's showing an interest in school dramatics. We have fun together." And a guest reported, "It was amazing to see Rocky, his eyes shining as he watched from the sidelines while Yul gave a Yoga demonstration in their patio. With his hard muscles and narrow waist Yul resembles Mr. America and he could draw his stomach in so that his midriff looked about three inches thick. But Mrs. Brynner didn't display too much interest. It appeared to be Yul's show and she let him star." Although this egg-bald panther of a man fairly oozes sex appeal to females from six to sixty it appears that lately Virginia has grown slightly immune to her husband's charms. A woman friend of Miss Gilmore reveals that "in late years there has been no outward show of affection between them, yet each is most affectionate with their son. Virginia is a highly intelligent, lovely woman with a rich, cultured voice. She put her whole heart into her unpaid cancer work, even taking science courses at the university. Now she hopes to reactivate her stage career as well as to continue with her cancer research work. Sometime ago she said, "I've just been
