AS YOU read this story Olivia de Havilland and Jimmy Stewart may have seen the preacher. Just the other day a member of Olivia's immediate family told me that Livvy and Jimmy are serious, are in love, will be married. And as their marriage will not be an elopement, we may make the grade, at that. i
How do I know it won't be an elopement? Well, I may be a trusting soul but Olivia told me, not long ago, that she would never elope ; that she wants to have a wedding just like her sister Joan had, with wedding gown and rice, old shoes and all. And I believe her. And Jimmy said that his folks "always get married in churches, it's an old Stewart custom," and one he isn't going to break.
Even now, as I write, the Hollywood reporters are taking box-lunches and spending their days at airports, railroad stations and motor highways lest Olivia and Jimmy do unto them what Bill Powell and his Diana did, Lana Turner and her Artie Shaw. The reporters are going to throw a few old shoes and a few old paragraphs at Livvy and Jimmy if they sneak a marriage.
And of course, you never can tell. No one can safely be predictable about matters emotional. Lives there a Hollywood reporter who hasn't pulled out all his amorous adjectives to describe some current Romeo and Juliet only to have them build a spite fence between their hearts just as his passionate piece is published?
Or who among us has not given his typewriter a stroke announcing a dramacharged divorce only to have the parties of the first and second partings, go into a clinch the day the story breaks.
Nevertheless, I can only repeat that a very immediate member of Olivia's family assured me that Livvy and Jimmy are in love and will be married, and don't say we didn't tell you !
Oh, and another tip — Warners wanted to team Olivia and Jimmy in a picture and they would have none of it. On ac
count of how, they said, they would be "too embarrassed to make love — in public." Now, you know as well as I do they wouldn't be embarrassed unless it was real. Jimmy wasn't too embarrassed to make screen love to Marlene Dietrich or Maggie Sullavan or any of the others. Livvy has managed to restrain her
blushes with George Brent and Errol Flynn.
When I heard Livvy and Jimmy wouldn't work together because they'd be embarrassed, I could only stammer that corny wheeze — oh, yeah ?
