Mat will be full 3 column size.) “A New Kind Of Love” Is Field Day For Lovers of High Fashion Clothes (For Women’s Pages) The most elaborate and spectacular costuming for a Paramount motion picture since “The Ten Commandments” was accomplished with gowns, furs, jewelry, suits and accessories valued at approximately $1,000,000 for the hilarious Technicolor comedy of the high fashion industry, “A New Kind Of Love.” Representing months of planning and designing by Academy Awardwinning designer, Edith Head, this wardrobe represents one of the most colorful and exciting design triumphs of her career as a stylist for motion pictures. The wardrobe includes 26 costume changes for Joanne Woodward, 17 gowns for Eva Gabor, 17 for Thelma Ritter, plus costumes for 25 models who appear in the big Parisienne fashion show sequences. In addition, Miss Head has designed brief, but highly imaginative creations for scenes in an exuberant French nite club, and special colorful costumes for Spectacular Ste. Catherine Day celebration sequences. To supplement the creations of Edith Head, additional outfits and accessories representing current and upcoming styles barely off the planning boards of New York and Paris fashion houses were flown in and used in the film. Some of these fabulous Haute Couture originals will be closely guarded by special agreement with the creators and will not be seen until “A New Kind Of Love” is released. Rounding out the $1,000,000 costuming project is a fashionable and advanced men’s wardrobe which Miss Head and Paul Newman assembled from exclusive houses in New York for the star to wear in the picture, and the personal furs and jewelry of Miss Gabor is valued in the neighborhood of $300,000. “A New Kind Of Love,’? which has its setting in the New York Fifth Avenue apparel emporiums and the high fashion salons of Paris, is being produced and directed in color by Shavelson from his own original screenplay. Maurice Chevalier will appear in a special cameo guest-star role in the picture.

THE JOANNE WOODWARD MYSTERY What is Joanne Woodward really like? This is a good question. And it’s asked often by press and magazine interviewers as well as film audiences, about Miss Woodward, who co-stars with Paul Newman in Paramount’s “A New Kind Of Love,” in Technicolor coming .... tienes to the s3 awiau. saat) hmeatre. The general curiosity springs from the diversified roles the actress has portrayed on the screen. There is the tempestuous dramatic performance in “Three Faces Of Eve,” for which Miss Woodward won an Academy best-actress award. In diverse contrast is her current costarring role with husband, Paul Newman, in the Melville Shavelson farce film comedy, “A New Kind Of Love.” In this hilarious concoction of exaggerated fact and bombastic fantasy played against the high fashion industry, the actress runs the gamut from slapstick to subtle drawing room farce. But Joanne Woodward isn’t really like any of these characters, according the close observers. First impressions indicate a modest and retiring nature, but a closer look reveals a keenlv analytical mind, intense interest in people and a finely balanced sense of humor. Producer-director Shavelson contends that Miss Woodward can play any characterization ever created in the realm of imagination or actual. “The emotional sensitivity is all there,” explains Shavelson, “But you don’t detect it in the actress’ normal life because she has complete control of her emotional system.” Miss Woodward herself stated, “T always wanted to be an actress. I don’t remember when it started, but it seems the desire has always been there.” Although her husband, Paul Newman, is of the opinion that Miss Woodward acts from the inside out, instinctively, the actress contends that she works just the opposite. “T believe I develop a character from the outside in,” opinioned Miss Woodward. This would indicate that the outside situation demanded for the role would condition the inner response. “Tt’s difficult to get actors to agree to just how they do act,” the actress added. ‘‘Both Paul and I do agree though that Paul begins with an intellectual approach to a role. It starts in his head and he thinks it through.” Whatever the motivation, it has been noted by Hollywood experts that Miss Woodward’s reaction to props, or a piece of wardrobe, is immediate. She becomes what the apparel or surroundings indicate whether it be a clown or a Camille. Enigmatic as the actress may appear concerning her screen and real life roles, Miss Woodward’s outlook on life is as normally wholesome as the girl next door, except there is a dynamic quality about it. “T just want to keep acting better and better,” said the actress. “And I want to be a good wife and mother. I also want to do some real good in the world,” Miss Woodward concluded.

Set in the high fashion emporiums of Fifth Avenue and Paris, the funfilm costars, George Tobias, Eva Gabor, Thelma Ritter, Robert Clary and Marvin Kaplan. Paul Newman is cast as a hotshot American newspaperman who likes girls to be girls, and in fact is exiled to Paris for flirting with his boss’s wife. Joanne Woodward is a buyer for ladies’ ready-to-wear in a large New York department store. She is all business and likes men to mind their own business. The buyer and the newspaperman meet on a flight to Paris, and make a singularly unpleasant impression on each other. However, destiny brings them together again and again in the gay city of Paris, and they even meet Maurice Chevalier who sings some of his old favorites in a colorful Sainte Catherine’s Day celebration. Finally, much against their wills, the romantic aura of Paris captures them . and they are never the same again. Also featured in the film are anproximately $1,000,000 worth of clothing and accessories, shown in sequences filmed in the top French fashion houses. * * * Paul Newman has a romantic field day in the new Paramount technicolor comedy “A New Kind Of Love” which opens ...... at the Sian aace Theatre. The handsome actor not only plays love scenes with pert and pretty Jan Moriarity and exotic Hungarian actress, Valerie Varda, but also with his wife, Joanne Woodward, who stars with him in the film. Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman Prove Marriage and Show Business Can Mix Successful husband and wife teams in the theatrical professions have proven rare, and more often signified the ‘kiss of death’ to both the career and the marriage. There are such popular wedded artists as Lunt and Fontaine, the early film day Carter de Havens and of course the delightful George Burns and Gracie Allen, who apparently weathered the stormy clash of temperaments and became American traditions in the theatre and motion pictures. But many husband and wife teams, it is a matter of record, played their last dramatic scene in the divorce court. On the current theatrical front are Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, who are not only domestically compatible and happily raising a family, but are winning film Oscars, nominations and ‘best actor or actress’ awards as the result of five motion pictures in which they have been co-starred. They are currently sharing star honors in the Melville Shavelson farce film comedy, “A New Kind Of Love” in Technicolor which opens ........ atthe geeeict es Theatre. It’s only their second comedy together. The others have been dramatic roles. Newman believes that the successful teaming of what film audiences might term, two explosive personalities, is the result of a unique balance of chemistry. “In analyzing a part,” explained Newman, “I make a cerebral approach. Joanne works from the inside out—a completely emotional response and motivation. You see we are complete opposites. This is good because it becomes impossible for one to be critical of the other’s interpretation of a characterization. Newman is quick to reassure, however, that there are no closed doors between them when they are co-starring in a film. “We actually have a ball,” enthuses the actor. We fully discuss our parts both on the set and at home. And we both have a profound respect for each other as artist and person. During production on our current: comedy, “A New Kind Of Love,” both of us, along with producer-director Shavelson and the entire cast and crew, have had plenty of laughs as we went along. Hope the audience gets as many chuckles out of the film as we have had making it.” Even in the matter of newspaper and magazine interviews, Paul and Joanne display a profound respect for the other. An interview schedule may be okay with one, but both will always suggest that the other be consulted before arrangements are concluded. At any rate, Paul and Joanne’s current picture may be titled “A New Kind Of Love,” but Hollvwood has also recognized that there’s also a new kind of theatrical team establishing a new precedent on the film sets.
