Photoplay (Jan-Jun 1959)

Sinatra and was ready to celebrate. Paul told me about Bill Holden dropping in on him and Eleanor to say goodbye before taking off on an African safari — and then walking out with three of Paul’s canvases as gifts to his wife Ardis. Set of the Month: Whamie! Dorothy Malone delivered a resounding smack to Richard Widmark’s cheek two minutes after I’d strolled onto the ''Warlock" set. As we all stood there, rooted to the spot while Dick’s cheek reddened, he murmured, "I guess I deserved that.” ... In her left hand Dorothy still clutched the newlywritten dialogue that had prompted the action. "Don’t you know your lines? ” Dick demanded as they went through the rehearsal scene. ‘‘You know you’re learning your lines on other people’s time, don’t you?” . . . Dorothy said nothing, but when it came time for the slap required in the story, she clobbered him. But that was nothing. During a second rehearsal the slap was repeated with even greater force. . . . Mr. Widmark’s reflexes were perfect. With the back of his hand he belted Dorothy across the face, whereupon the lady retired to her dressing room in tears and we crept off into the sunshine of the Twentieth Century-Fox lot. . . . By morning it was all over, of course. The cameraman hung a pair of boxing gloves on the set, Richard duly apologized and all was forgiven. But shy, retiring Dorothy Malone! The town can’t get over it. Around Town: It’s a tender and budding romance between Tab Hunter an( I Ma ria Cooper. The other evening in Chasen s parking lot 1 overheard Gary and Rocky Cooper saying goodbye to Tab and Maria, off to a party somewhere. And like parents everywhere, they were solicitious about Tab’s driving and getting home on time. . . Tommy Sands is a little dubious about traveling with that young Raiders group composed of the four Crosby boys, Johnny Anderson, Lou Klass, Randy Sparks, Ken Scott, Rick Strauss and Ed Goldstone. And Tommy, of course. But there’s a streak of earnestness about Tommy that doesn’t jibe with too much horseplay. Which is probably why he and Lindsay, the youngest and most serious of the Crosby lads, are such pals. One Thing Leads To Another: Eddie and Liz, who treated her sons to a day at Disneyland. are double-dating with Liz’s exhusband, Mike Wilding, and his bride. With Eddie’s TV show done and gone at end of contract, the latest hot-cha has Eddie taking up residence in Las Vegas. Object: a divorce from Debbie and a wedding to Liz. A small byplay was missed by reporters when a weary Eddie and a plump Liz showed up for dinner at Chasens to prove Liz was not a patient at Menninger’s Clinic as reported. With the press and photographers, who had been tipped off, milling about, a young man dining in the bar came out to investigate the commotion. He took one look at Liz and fled. The lad? Arthur Loew Jr., who had squired Liz before Eddie. ... In the meantime, Debbie Reynolds keeps bouncing along from one movie to another and hopes, later this year, to enroll in the Actors Studio in New' York. So, move over, Marilyn. . . . And, due to Eddie, the whole bloomin’ Jerry LewisDean Martin feud began all over again after Dean demanded — and was refused — a fully-equipped kitchen plus $$$$$ for an Eddie Fisher guest spot ( before Eddie went off). Eager-beaver Jerry rushed to take over — for free. The boys are madder than ever now. Has Tab found a real romance with Maria Cooper? That’s Mrs. Cooper with the NSIDE continued |\Jeaj Tim!
