Photoplay (Jul - Dec 1933)

She Abhors Being "Beautified" Photoplay Magazine for October, 1933 So you've been looking for a better NAIL POLISH? 97 [ COXTIXCED FROM PAGE 69 ] did give in, she laid out and had incorporated in her contract a set of conditions the like of which even Hollywood had never seen before. To begin with, she had a small — "a very small," she insists — mole just beneath her left nostril. Stahl noticed it and suggested that she have it removed — or that Universal have it removed for her. "Nothing doing!" decreed Miss Sullavan. "I won't be beautified. I'll stay exactly as I am, movies or no movies!" Since she has come to the Coast, however, the mole has been removed. Because she consented to be beautified? Good lord, no! "Just imagine," she snorted indignantly — if such a charmingly vivacious young lady can be said to snort — "they called it a wart! They did! I couldn't possibly keep it after that, could I?" SHE pointed to a tiny scar the size of a pinprick. "Look," she said, "What a chump I was! I'll carry that clear to my grave!" Of course she won't. And if she does, it doesn't matter. Nobody but she would know. But about the tooth, Margaret hasn't given in, and swears she won't. It seems that she has just one tooth that is very, very slightly uneven, and Stahl, beauty dissectionist that he is, noticed that too. He suggested that with very little trouble, and no pain at all, a good dentist could make it a perfect match in an hour or so. "Absolutely not!" decreed Miss Sullavan again. "I absolutely will not." And she hasn't. Looking at Margaret, it isn't hard to realize why she objected to being beautified. It isn't necessary at all. She realizes that she isn't the Hollywooddoll type, and that's what she thought might happen to her if she didn't guard against it. But the secret of Margaret's appeal, the thing that won Stahl so instantly, was her utter charm. She's a sort of white Topsy — a natural rebel. She doesn't fraternize with the movie crowd at all, refuses even to contemplate the usual things that most picture people do. "I live at a very nice apartment-hotel," she said sweetly. "We have a lovely swimming pool that the other guests don't use, so I have it all to myself. I don't go to openings, soirees, movie teas, cabarets, parties, or anything like that, of course. I tried them all out just once, and I didn't like any of them." It may be interesting, in passing, to remark that in her first picture Margaret is being supported by such veteran screen and stage names as Edna May Oliver, Benita Hume, Robert McWade, Reginald Denny, Billie Burke, Julia Faye, Mary Doran, Natalie Moorhead and dozens and dozens of others. A T the studio she always eats at the lunch"**-counter. She doesn't like the "atmosphere" in Universal's exclusive "Indian Room," where all the stars and executives eat. The first day when they saw her sitting there at the counter, they thought it was a mistake — that she just didn't know any better. "Oh," a big, double-barreled executive went over to her and said, "you mustn't sit over here, Miss Sullavan — it won't quite do for a leading lady, you know." He jerked his head towards the sanctum caviarum. "We all eat in there." "I see," responded Miss Sullavan contritely. "I'll remember after this." She did, too. Still eats seated at the lunch counter. She really likes the grips, carpenters, and electricians Here it is! Right Now! 50% LONGER WEAR NEW LACQUERS OF RICHER LUSTRE 6 SHADES.. .COLOR CHART ON EACH j PACKAGE... NEW METAL-SHAFT BRUSH...
