Hollywood Past and Future
George Arliss, Dick Powell, Eddie Cantor, Joe E. Brown, James Cagney, Fredric March.
The rating is gauged by profits on their pictures. This is not a true gauge. Some stars had more sumptuous productions than others. George Arliss, for example, had the benefit of "The House of Rothschild," a draw in itself. Norma Shearer had the aid of stronger supporting names than other stars had. Dick Powell can't be given sole credit for the musical shows in which he appeared inasmuch as there were other stars with him (to say nothing of them there Busby Berkeley rascals). The same pertains to Eddie Cantor's rating. For many, no doubt, Eddie was just the funny little fellow buzzing amid the Goldwyn Flowers.
GARBO does not appear among the mighty ten. "Queen Christina" was stuffy, stagey, talky. Garbo dipped, and out bounded the old Hollywood cheer squad to dirge its favorite ditty entitled, "Finished." Garbo will collect with a good picture. She will not be the major sensation.
That other glamour gal, Marlene Dietrich, has also gone up a side street. What can a gal do when her director goes for gargoyles? Marlene is just a moving illustration in Mr. Von Sternberg's art work.
Stroking the beard of the prophet, I get these vibrations:
Mae West has a rival sensation in Grace Moore. Miss Moore revealed, to the surprise of nearly everyone, that the public has become high-minded musically. I predicted some time ago opera, edited and modernized, would be a success but no one heard me because of the yowls of the tin pan alley-ites who rate as composers in Hollywood.
I don't mean to join the cheer squad in a chant over Mae's remains. Mae became an American Institution over night and anyone aiming to overthrow an Institution is a Red. Without appearing on
{Continued from 'page 45)
the screen Mae could earn her daily diamonds producing. There isn't a smarter showman out here on the West Coast than Lady Barnum.
Warners haven't done right by our Joan Blondell. She could rate with Mae West and Jean Harlow as one of the three star comediennes. I foresee the boys doing better by Blondell the coming year.
Richard Barthelmess having graduated from stardom can come back in chosen roles, a splendid actor.
Maurice Chevalier will soon heed the call of France or the stage. That Merry Widow waltz just about winded Maurice.
Jeanette MacDonald grows in beauty, acting, voice. She is a 1935 sure winnah.
William Powell will make ten pictures and because he is expert his stock will rise.
W. C. Fields should come into the clover of wider appreciation as the screen's best comedian.
Jack Oakie is another who ought to get more credit.
Fredric March declaiming and outbarrymoring John should excel playing actors. He will certainly prosper.
Bing Crosby is a vocal vogue. 1935 is somewhat doubtful.
Norma Shearer in lavish productions has every chance to gain, particularly if she gets rid of mannerisms and projects thought and feeling.
Ronald Colman is liable to climb back in the 1935 list. Something about the man holds 'em.
Clark Gable is liked by men but it's the women who put him way up there. Should doff tux fer denims. Has the ice man's appeal for housewives.
Myrna Loy has mounted slowly and for that reason will probably linger longer.
Tom Brown is the American Kid. They ought to toss him some college and military roles.
Will Rogers, another American Institution, who will last until the Republicans return and that is as far as I can see into the future.
Oh why, as Mrs. Pat Campbell exclaimed over her fancy work, did I ever start this?
But I got to say some words on James Cagney. There is electricity in the boy. If you like him — I mean on the screen, I don't know him personally — your enthusiasm is liable to mount a soap box. That's the sort of roles he should get — rabble-rousers. Fighter for a cause, right or wrong. A hero of current issues. The late Wilson Mizner declared Cagney gave the screen's greatest performance in "Winner Take All." No one beats him for fire and sincerity. Considering the prejudicing moll-smacking roles and the mediocrity of many pictures, he has done extraordinarily well to land among the Big Ten.
T N closing, it is very gratifying to ■*■ Swami Howe to predict we are ascending to a higher plane. The enlistment of Max Reinhardt to produce "A Midsummer Night's Dream" — for which, by the way, the author, Mr. Shakespeare, should receive some credit— is a bright augury. While with Warner Brothers he probably will produce "The Miracle." Fox is giving Dante a chance with "Inferno." Dickens gets a break at Universal with "Great Expectations," offering additional zest in the debut of Henry Hull. M-G-M is doing "David Copperfield" with great players, among them the excellent Frank Lawton of "One More River." Thalberg is doing "Marie Antoinette" in magnificence of setting and cast. History, Religion, Biography are on tap at vigorous young 20th Century; George Arliss as Cardinal Richelieu. Ronald Colman as Clive of India with a herd of elephants, Wallace Beery as the Mighty Barnum with a flock of freaks.
If these sound a little too heady and moral to the kiddies I might add we have the "Folies Bergere" and "Gold-Diggers of 1935" to look forward to. And there's always Mae to fall back on. Umph!
DIET PROBLEMS of THE STARS
Conducted by DR. HENRY KATZ
'T"SHE question of weight in Hol■*■ lywood is brought up in a letter from a reader of New Movie Magazine that runs as follows:
"I would like to get a doctor's opinion about the fashion for excessively slender silhouettes in Hollywood. I have learned that Claudette Colbert is five feet, five inches tall and weighs only one hundred and three pounds, Kay Francis is five feet, four inches tall and weighs only one hundred and twelve pounds. This, I believe is typical, yet such weights are below normal according to the health experts. I would like to know if actresses who remain as underweight as this run the risk of injuring their health and whether it
This new department in New Movie Macazine is conducted by Dr. Henry Katz, experienced general practitioner and member of the staff of Fordham Pediatric Clinic, New York. If you would like expert advice about any questions of food or diet, send them to Mary Marshall, 55 Fifth Avenue, New York City. Dr. Katz will per. sonally direct the answer to your problem unless it is one that calls for advice of your family physician. Questions and answers of special interest will be published — with senders* names omitted — in this department, except where special request is made not to have the answer used in this way. Letters should enclose stamp, or stamped, addressed envelope for reply.
is safe for other girls to follow." To begin with we should remember that outstanding stars of the movies are unusual people. They are exceptions to the rule, not only in appearance and personality, but in physical endurance. It would not be a good plan for a young girl of average endurance to imitate these women in this matter.
We should also remember that these actresses keep down their weight by systematic exercises and carefully regulated diet under the supervision of doctors. They usually have good long vacations for a part of the year, and are able to leave Hollywood for a change of climate when this is advisable to keep in good physical condition.
