Mrs. Calhoun and little Miss Calhoun < right) chat with the Madison children. Gina Martin, Dean's youngest, came in a ballet costume. The Star Had to Go to Bed Sue and Alan Ladd invited a lew of us to dine at their home (really a beautiful place since Sue redecorated it) and see a special showing of Dog of Flanders. It's the first time I've been present at a movie party at which the star of the picture had to retire before the screening because of his tender years — and I do mean 11-year-old David Ladd. Right after dinner, David politely made the rounds shaking hands with the Gregory Pecks, pretty Margot Moore (leading lady of Wake Me When It's Over), her fiance Bob Radnitz — who produced Dog of FJanders, and the Hall Bartletts. To each and every one of us, he said (loud enough for Alan to hear). "I certainly hope you enjoy the picture. I'd like to stay up and see it myself, but — ." Alan didn't come up for air. The star of this delightful and enchanting movie about a boy and his dog departed slowly upstairs. But don't think for a moment that Sue and Alan aren't proud of their small fry. David is such a fine little actor. "If he keeps on being this much competition he's going to have to pay for his room and board," kidded Alan. The movie was made in Holland and Belgium and the backgrounds in color are so beautiful. Take my word for it that Dog of Flanders is worth your investment at the box office — a breath of clean, vigorous fresh air and beauty in the midst of too many smutty plots. Sue and Alan Ladd are he's a tine little actor certainly proud of their David (center), in a delightful movie— Dog of Flanders
