We like the description a friend gives of her — a Mid-Victorian on a scooter. The informality and lived-in feeling of her home is comforting. Records can litter the floor if they choose, but the tea is hot, the sandwich crisp and unusual. In fact, the de Havilland menage was noted for its excellent food in the good old pre-war days. THE little-girl way she has of biting her ' ice-tea spoon is entrancing. The charm and graciousness with which she handles wolves with ideas is terrific. "And not too long ago I wouldn't have known how to handle such situations," she laughs. Her gifts are indicative of her heart. No matter to whom they are going — they are the kind of gift she, herself, would love to receive. The way she sits in her dressing room with her shoes off waiting to be called for a scene is comforting to behold. And that anyone so beautiful can bark so doglike kills us. No Scotch terrier ever had eyes like that. That she made her living doing animal and bird imitations over the air and as part of radio shows before movies simply stands us on end. It was an honest living, yes, but what canary looks like Livvie? The way she takes the feud stories that circulate about her sister, Joan Fontaine, is A-one for our money. Livvie admits to scraps and differences but tolerates no suggestions that there's anything but good healthy disagreements between them. The fact she moved into an apartment handy to Joan proves this. We like her for the way she makes friends — slowly. She had an idea Bette Davis was against her somehow and disliked her thoroughly all through "Elizabeth And Essex." And then several years went by and Livvie grew up and Bette grew less tense and the two found themselves together in "In This Our Life." Right off they became the best of friends, clowning together on the set, enjoying each other's company. Jack Carson is her friend and so is Henry Fonda; her two boy friends in "The Male Animal." There's a sort of tie-that-binds among these three even today. She isn't easy to know or maybe to understand right off, which pleases us mightily. But that we are privileged to know her pleases us no end. The End Things I Don't Like about Myself (Continued jrom page 41) he said. "No, thank you, but. . . ." I ordered coke with cherry. The amazing individual had led me firmly by the arm to the counter. "Now, what sort of opinions ..." I began. The young man walked over to the juke box and dropped in a nickel. "Will you tell me what I'm doing here?" I asked myself. "What is all this?" "Now, young man ..." I began. "Let's dance," the boy said and, to my horror, I almost found myself whirling about the floor with an utter stranger in a strange city, while the juke box yelled at the top of its voice: "I want a zoot suit, With a reat pleat." Anyway, it ended up with my subscribing to "Boys' Life" and "Trailer Life," the only two magazines on his list I was sure I wasn't getting. IN HOLLYWOOD about six-thirty one ' evening recently the doorbell rang. I had no maid and at that minute I was in the shower. Visioning an important telegram or message I grabbed a towel, wound my bathrobe over the towel and went to the door, in damp layers. "I'm Alvin," the object on my doorstep informed me. "I'm State Champion of the violin. Hello." "Hello." "I can go to the Conservatory on a scholarship if I get the most magazine subscriptions." "Now, see here, Olivia," I began to caution myself. It was no use. The old magazine subscription inertia had me again. ^'Well, now let's see," I said. "I take so many, many magazines." "Just one," Alvin pleaded. "Here's one I don't think I take." I said. "Let me look." I went over the bundle of unwrapped magazines on the table. "No, it isn't here. I'll take it." Alvin hesitated. "Well, you see, lady," he said, "that really is in the lower bracket price. I really need a higher priced one. How about 'Fortune?' " I took "Fortune" and liked it. I have everything now but "Field A»d Stream." I'm saving that for the next agent. ANSWERING letters or rather not answering letters is another fault. I always mean to and want to, but somehow they always manage to find themselves unanswered and relegated to various files. The first one is the "Great Scott, what's this? I must do something about it" file. The second file is the "Well, well, this is something that should be put away" file. The next file is the "Good Heavens, it's no use now" file. And of course, the last file is the finish. I never see the letter again and one more weight goes hanging onto my conscience. I'm afraid I'm prone to judge men by their behavior with waiters. I like men who overtip. They're nice men in my opinion. I like simple clothes and wear them, but somehow I feel I'm letting my profession down. Actresses, in my opinion, should dress dramatically. People expect it. The profession almost demands it. I'm usually late for appointments. I don't mean to be. I don't make appointments unless I mean to keep them. I love shopping for birthday presents. I can't wait for my friends to have birthdays so I can buy them a present. Then I put the present in my car. Wrapping paoer, fancy ribbon and a blank card go with it. I have every intention of wrapping the present at the studio and delivering it myself on the way home. I insist that I must deliver it myself, when the store wants to send it. Six months later, to my amazement, I find the birthday present on the back seat of my car. Which reminds me — Geraldine Fitzgerald is having a birthday. I must rush right down and buy her a present! Don't you just lore birthdays? The End 94 photoplay combined u;ith movie mirror
