Actresses have no economic necessity for pretending, or for trying to please anyone but themselves. They don't depend on the support of some husband who must be kept contented and flattered. A great many women who seem to be more unselfish, more admiring and respectful to the male, are often that way only because it's provident to be so. "No, it's probably very naive of me, but I think the Hollywood girls are marvelous. I'm all for them." Not Born Sophisticated THE role of worldling and commentator on women is a comparatively recent one for Warren. Once he was a 'most unsophisticated boy in Aiken, Minnesota, just out of high school and faced with the burdensome problem of what to make of his life. He rather wanted to be some kind of engineer, but he couldn't do his arithmetic, so that made it impossible. Neither was he quite fitted to take up journalism, like his father. In this dilemma his sister, for no good reason, suggested that he be an actor. Maybe she was being sarcastic. "At any rate," said Warren, "the family took it seriously and packed me off to the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York. I guess they were delighted to get me off their hands and didn't much care how it turned out. I probably wasn't a very hopeful-looking boy." Just as he finished learning how to be an actor, America went into the war, so the next two years were spent in a New Alexico training camp and in France. His first chance to ply his newly-acquired trade — or should I say art? — was just after the armistice was signed, when he joined a stock company of soldiers, and in the role of Stephen Denby in "Under Cover," toured the south of France. This freed him from military duty, provided him with a comfortable bed to sleep in, a little money, and a lot of fun. It was much more fun than the first frugal years after his return to the United States, when he went through the usual weary struggles of a young actor trying to get up in the world. The Progress He Has Made " "\ /\y first New York job was in 'Mrs. IVJ. Jimmie Thompson,' in which I played a pickle-salesman. "Then I went into a dreadful little stock company in Brooklyn. I nearly went crazy learning so many parts, and I never could remember my lines. I had them letterperfect when I mumbled them going to and from the theater, but once on the stage, I blew up. We had a Christmas party on the stage, and the company presented me with a tin airplane labeled, ' Not to be used on the stage.' That's how bad I was." But the years wore on, and his memory improved, and play followed play, all leading up to "The Vinegar Tree" and the Warner Brothers. In eight years he had made the transition from pickle-salesman to sophisticate, and now you may see him being the suave gentleman on the screen in "Expensive Women" and "The Honor of the Family." However, don't let his roles lead you astray. He will answer to the charge of worldlywiseness only if he is allowed to give his own definition. "A sophisticate," he will tell you, "is a person who has freed himself from all the nonsense he was taught as a child — and, through experience and intelligence, has learned to see things as they really are. This does not imply that he is bored or blase. "I was taught the most frightful lot of nonsense as a child. I have had a great deal to unlearn. The children to-day don't have that disadvantage. They're sophisticated from the moment they're born. All they have to acquire is a little experience and judgment. And they acquire those sooner than my generation ever did. Sophistication comes with age, it's true, but a great deal of experience creates a synthetic aging, which has the same effect." So remember that at heart Warren William is not so bored and blase as enthusiastic and expectant, with the challenging blue eye of a Sergeant Quirt. You can easily believe that he likes girls, in any town. And Hollywood girls will like Warren, not only because he defends them and thinks them lovely, but — well, just because.
