Photoplay (Jul-Dec 1959)

“I’m all right,” she told them quietly. “Then tell us about the house we’re I going to?” began Mike. “Well,” she said slowly, grateful that children can be so quickly satisfied with ! just a few reassuring words, “it’s a big farmhouse in the country by a huge old castle, where the kings and queens of ; England sometimes stay. And you’ll have very large grounds to play in . . . and . . Liz stopped for a moment, noticing the ; way their heads were beginning to droop ( sleepily. “And,” she finished softly, “maybe you’ll even see Prince Charles and i Princess Anne when they come to stay at the castle. . . In the front seat, next to the chauffeur, her smallest child, Liza, was already asleep in the nurse’s arms. And so Liz herself leaned her head back against Eddie’s shoulder. “Take it easy, darling,” he told her. “Everything will be all right.” Would it? he wondered. He’d worry about that tomorrow, he decided . . . Tomorrow he’d worry about the comments he and Liz would still have to live with — We’ve overcome them in the past, he thought, we will go on doing it . . . He forced himself to think of brighter things. Tomorrow he was going to take the whole family out walking and bicycling in the parks near the house ... A little thing, perhaps — but important because they had planned it ... As they’d planned a thousand tomorrows, so that whatever people said couldn’t hurt them. And wasn’t tomorrow the day he’d told Liz he’d try to get tickets for the concert his friend Van Cliburn was giving at the new concert hall in London? He’d even played at Eddie’s house in Hollywood, and Liz had heard Van there. He had said, too, that maybe tomorrow night he’d take Liz to a real English pub . . . And tomorrow Liz would be beginning a new film. Sam Speigel should be calling her about the first arrangements . . . But wasn’t tomorrow also the day when Michael Wilding, the boys’ father, would be planning to come to see them? But tomorrow they would have to open a morning paper and read about tonight at the airport . . . tomorrow . . . tomorrow. . . He looked across at Liz and he patted her arm gently, trying to reassure her about anything she might be fearing. “Don’t worry,” he said softly. “Everything will be all right. I’ve made arrangements so that no one will disturb us at the house. You’ll see. In no time we’ll be settled. And as for troubles— we’ll just continue to stare right back at them.” He hoped he sounded more cheerful than he felt. “Yes,” said Liz, but she looked thoughtful as she stared ahead through the window of the car and out at the road ahead. Awaking the next day, Eddie could hear the children, up early on their first morning in England, anxious to see their new home and the countryside around them. The night before, it had been dark when they arrived at the house and also very late. So they had been sent straight off to bed without even having a chance to explore. “Look!” he could hear Mike shouting, and Eddie could just picture the three of them kneeling on a wide window seat in one of the downstairs rooms, peering out at the grounds. In front lay acres and acres of wide green lawns, greener than they’d ever seen, he knew. And, over the top of the high hedges at the end of lawns, they would glimpse the quaint slanted cottage roofs of the village of Englefield Green. “Let’s go outside and play,” he heard Chris say, and then he heard all three of them run outside, shouting and laughing TV & MOVIE STAR PHOTOS Brand new stars and brand new pictures!
