Photoplay (Jul-Dec 1958)

boring. To prove a point I offer you some excerpts taken from the tape recorded interview we did for Photoplay. The day we made it I was in the process of apartment moving (to a larger, more comfortable one) and everything, but everything was in a mess. I looked like something out of second-rate Carmen in my red-print cotton shirt over red toreador pants, hut Francois was mighty fetching in a blue T-shirt and faded blue denims. The interviewer, Francois and I were all in the bedroom at the time and I was sitting cross-legged in the center of the bed. The small radio atop the console TV was blasting merrily and Bippo, the tiny black-and-white kitten Francois had gotten for me at the A.S.P.C.A., “Because it needs a happy home,” was curled up at the foot of the bed sound asleep. It looked so sweet and helpless, like a blob of ink on the Black Watch tartan spread. The interview proceeded thus: Question: Why don’t you think you’re too young to marry? Francois: Because she found the man of her life and that was that. Jeaii: Because I don’t believe you can force love to wait too long. Besides, I don’t think I could find anyone who means as much to me more than once in a lifetime. Francois and I may be young in years but we’ve both matured early. Francois during the war, under the Occupation, and me with my career and the singular nature of it. Question: What do you have in common? Francois: We walk, talk, shout, scream, fight, eat, kiss, dance, swim — everything we like to do together. Jean: We’re both pretty highly strung but we only scream at each other about fifteen minutes a day. Francois: We only broke five glasses in Jean’s last apartment! Jean: We’ve never had an argument that lasted more than — three and a half months! Francois: Two hours! Jean: Actually, we both come to a quick boil and then it’s all over. Usually when I’m nervous Francois is calm and vice versa. Francois: That’s what we call our automatic switch. Question: What do you want for your marriage — goals, plans, etc.? Jean: Money, fast cars, minks! No, seriously— a quiet, creatively alive life with friends. Francois: No. Jean : Okay, a quiet, creatively alive life without friends! Francois: A quiet noisy life with interesting dull friends, with fast and slow cars and large small houses! Question : How will you manage marriage and a career? Jean: There shouldn’t be any conflict. There are plenty of people who make it work out. Deborah Kerr for one. Francois: If marriage and career conflict, one of them will have to go. Change that. One or both of them will have to go. Come to think of it I’m not so sure what he means by that last remark! But like it or not I’ll be opening soon in “The Moon Is Blue,” somewhere in New England, where I am touring this summer. I play a girl in love and this is one role I am approaching with perfect confidence! For many good reasons. Isn’t love great? It makes all the difference in the world and to think it all began that very special Saturday night! The End SEPTEMBER COVER Debbie , Eddie, Carrie mid Todd Fisher!
