Stardom Can't Last — What's to
FolW?
Continued from page 87
Incidentally, he confided on the same occasion that he aspired to become a studio executive.
"No actor has ever achieved that position, that I know of," he remarked. "But that is what I should like to do, and I am going to try to do it!"
John Gilbert wants to produce. "It is all an accident, my being an actor, anyhow !" he told me. "No one wasas surprised as I was. Me — with my bulbous nose and funny, thin neck — a leading man ! It's amazing !
"I shall go on, of course, as long as I can, and make as much money as possible. But afterward I am going to work! This is not work, you know — just walking through a picture. Other people have written the story, planned the settings, worked out the action. Why, the very things I do on the set are the expressions of the director. I am just a puppet!
"When the public no longer wants to see me on the screen — and it can't be very long, now ! — I want to do some of the work in pictures. I want to use my brain.
"I am an egomaniac, you know, and I think I could do a lot of these things better than most of the people who are doing them. There are a few brain-workers in the industry to whom I take off my hat with tremendous respect. The rest — well, I think I could do better !"

Esther Ralston, the beautiful blond Esther, plans a dressmaking establishment. "They have made a clothes horse of me in pictures," she remarked. "I shall cash in on that ! I have not spent my time entirely in learning how to act. I have spent it learning how to dress, too. I shall sell my knowledge after I have finished practicing what I have learned in pictures."
They are learning, the stars of today, from the experiences of the stars of yesterday. Success can dissolve overnight, into shadows and memories. Only a few can remain in the spotlight over a long period — and they look forward to forty as the end of their stay.
After stardom — what? It is a question which many established plaj'ers are considering seriously in these days of insecurity and abrupt endings of careers. '
