288 Actorviews “ ‘No, I’m from Brooklyn,’ the girl said, beautifully, softly, southernly. “ ‘But you must have lived in the South,’ I said, ‘before you went to Brooklyn, else how could you have such a lovely southern accent?’ “ ‘I’ve always lived in Brooklyn,’ she told me in the same delightful way — ‘maybe it’s my false teeth.’ ” I relished that almost as much as I relished an hour of improving and unprintable discourse on the Drama. But I could have kissed her where she smoked (not that! — but of course you know your Princess Pat even if you don’t know me) when, I forget just how, she herself used the phrase “glad girl,” and spoke it like one tasting poison. And when I asked her for her honest-to-God opinion of that sickening optimist, Patricia Collinge vindicated my high faith in her by saying : “I always felt that if Polyanna lived near me I’d brain her.”
