Cheers and Jeers:
The story, “Her Heart Knows” (Jane Powell) in April Photoplay, stinks. If Geary is the dictatorial, egotistical person the story portrays him to be, he is just kidding himself if he thinks he can keep the spirited Janie with such tactics “till death do us part.” I just can’t imagine such submissiveness. However, I must admit he is generous by insisting on going fifty-fifty on the household expenses. What

Please let’s have more on Lana Turner, Liz Taylor, Ava Gardner and Rita Hayworth. These gals have real glamour and they do something exciting once in a while. Anybody can sit home at night and rock a baby, as you read about some stars doing. Georgia Clark

Is Hollywood in the movie business or the burlesque business? In “Show1 Boat,” “His Kind of Woman” and “Painting the Clouds with Sunshine,” I was shocked at the clothes worn by Virginia Mayo, Lucille Norman, Virginia Gibson, Jane Russell and Ava Gardner. They were disgraceful. People go to the show to see a movie, not some half-dressed women. So let’s put some tops on the dresses.

In your May issue, Sheilah Graham’s article, “More Dressing, Please,” was pretty disgusting. Who is she that she can point out the worst-dressed women in Hollywood? It’s certainly no one’s business how any of those actresses dress when they’re off the set. I don’t mean to be nasty, but it’s not fair. These actresses mentioned have given people all over our country hours of enjoyment. We should be grateful instead of griping.

I just saw “The Greatest Show on Earth” and I thought it was wonderful. I don’t see how Farley Granger and Tony Curtis get so much rating when Charlton Heston has twice the acting ability and looks that Granger or Curtis have together. Jean Moss

I’ve just seen Pier Angeli in “Tomorrow Is Too Late” and all I can say is, “What an angel !” She is everything a man looks for in a girl, charming, modest, beautiful. Hollywood’s so-called glamour girls may now take a back seat.

Casting:
What’s the meaning of starring VeraEllen and Fred Astaire in “The Belle of New York”? Why wasn’t a young, handsome actor like Gene Nelson or Gene Kelly given the role, not an old man like Fred Astaire?

Why doesn’t someone team Doris Day and Gene Kelly in a top musical hit ! I
know it would go wonderful.

I would like very much to know why you have stopped putting pin-ups in Photoplay. I know a lot of girls who are collecting the pin-ups and would like very much if you would start putting them in Photoplay again. Frieda Sallee

Susan Hayward just made “With a Song in My Heart,” the life story of Jane Froman. They said it was Miss Hayward’s first musical. I have a sheet of music which shows her in a costume which would be used in a musical. The name of the picture was “Hit Parade of 1943.”
