Ralph cuts in on the act when Burt takes the consequences on Q. 9
He could take ’em or leave ’em. But when he crossed up
Edwards, tough guy Lancaster met his match in consec[uences
1. Q: In your new role of producer, would you Kire a certain lad named Burt Lancaster?
A; I already have. But let US say that, as a producer, I’m trying not to hire Lancaster. In the picture we re planning to make in Mexico, "The Eagle on the Cactus," I'm shooti ng for Dana Andrews. It's a great part and I’d love to play it hut I believe D ana would he better for it. However, I am starring in my Universal ~ International production "Criss-Cross. ”
2. Q: Did you ever lose a figlit? A: when I was a kid, I was always getting licked, it seemed. But I was always fighting, too, if that means anything. Since I've been grown, somehow I've managed to escape them.
3. Q; And you can escape me, too. This is really for tke ladies. Are you "Loss” around kome? (As a consequence for refusing to answer, Burt had to prove his nerves were steady by balancing two glasses of water on the backs of his hands. What he wasn t told was that Ralph was on hand to give him a "hot foot. ")
4. Q: As a killer — a lady killer —
on tke screen, do you recommend using cave-man tactics? A; That depends. If you’re alluding to a woman whojias any kind of sense, I would say no. But there are some women who have to be treated rough — who ask to be.
5. Q: Wkat qualities do you look for in women?
A; Genuineness, fraiikness, sincerity.
6. Q:Wkat feminine trait do you dislike most?
A: I hate "tricks. "Most particularly that "you great big wonderful -man-you" routine. Far from flattering, it actually shows no consideration for the person involved. I consider it most unwomanly. If a woman pulls it on me I dislike her immediately.
7. Q: Wkat’s tke most dangerous feat you ever attempted?
A; It could be this Photoplay quiz — if we don 't leave the ladies, or get back on the subject of how wonderful they are. The most dangerous? Acrobatics in the circus, I suppose. Any offtiming can mean death. But it doesn 't bother you too much — you know you're well-trained.
