We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

PUBLICITY BUILD-UP s Here are a half dozen of the important scenes showing Kay Francis in “Confession.” The art lay-out is similar to clips from the film. Dialogue excerpts from the shooting script are placed beside corresponding photos. This makes for an interesting newspaper contest :—Each day one picture appears with dialogue excerpt NOT corresponding to that particular picture. Contestants are required to collect the six photographs and match them with the correct corresponding dialogue. Photos and dialogue are shown in correct order on this page. WANDA (Helen Valkis) "Vera, you're a fool to give all this up." VERA (Kay Francis) "Of Course I am, but I amso happy I can yell—" (she trills a high "c" STELLA (Laura Hope Crews) "How do you get up that high?—" "That note had snow on it!" VERA (Kay Francis) "They will prove that I have told you the truth. But if you had examined them in open court, Lisa—the whole world—would have learned who I really was. She must never know. That was my reason—my only reason —for refusing to testify except behind closed doors—And now..." VERA (Kay Francis) (Her hands are clenched together while she wonders frantically what she shall do. Her thoughts can be heard in the form of frightened whisperings, which seem to fill the air. Her lips, however, do not move.) "It didn't happen— Not to me— It isn't possible—" MICHAEL( Basil Rathbone) to LISA (Jane Bryan) "T was lonely, fed up with concerts; traveling about—when I saw you—somehow, I felt I knew you, had known you—you brought up the past—I actually glowed. I didn't feel lonely any longer. I looked forward to the Concert—But I felt that you must be there, that I mustn't lose sight of you-——" LEONIDE (Ian Hunter) "Now I remember you—" VERA (Kay Francis) "I thought you looked familiar." LEONIDE: "Doing anything tomorrow?" VERA: "Getting married." LEONIDE: "Funny. So am I." VERA (Kay Francis) "Michael, I have known you too long and too well. Youdon't know anything about love because you never have loved anyone but yourself—and your work. You may be able. to sway the rest of those foolish women out there with your impestuous love-making— but it doesn't impress me one little bit."
