222 IT TOOK NINE TAILORS After paying my respects to the other guests, I felt myself gravitating back toward Miss Teasdale. She was wearing a darkred dress, which was very becoming. I thought to myself, "Twice is enough. How many times are you going to make the same fatal mistake?'' But inevitably I found myself in a corner talking to Miss Teasdale again. She was in pictures, too, I learned. She had come out from the New York stage and was under contract to Warner Brothers. "I haven't done anything much in pictures yet," she said, "but you may have seen me in New York. "What shows did you do?" "The Youngest, with Genevieve Tobin and Henry Hull." "No I missed that." "The Constant Wife, with Ethel Barrymore." "I guess I missed that, too." "The Greeks Had a Word for It." "I hear that was very good but—" I quickly changed the subject to motion pictures.
