Nevertheless, Kay Francis has had that unique experiencee While the thermometer stood at 90 on the sound stage at Warner BroSe and are lights poured ardent warmth as well as light upon her, Kay snuggled under sheets and an eider-stuffed silk quilt. Quite cool and comfortable, thank you, because in with her were several little packets of dry ice. The scene was for the Cosmopolitan production, "Give Me Your Heart," which comes to the theatre on jake as a Warner Bros. release. George Brent, playing the part of the star's husband, was serving her a midnight snack, and the scene went on and on, with takes, retakes and new camera angles. Brent mopped his brow and removed his make-up repeatedly. Director Archie Le Mayo, in shirt sleeves, used a palm-leaf fan. Anda between shots Kay quipped gaily at them, and assured them the weather was fine. "Give Me Your Heart" is a dynamic drama of love and passion and sacrifice, based on the play by Jay Mallory. Beside Miss Francis and Brent the cast includes Roland Young, Patric Knowles, Henry Stephenson, Frieda Inescort and Helen Flinte The screen play is by Casey Robinsone a 50ha— HOLLYWOOD FOG HALTS FILMING OF LONDON FOG It was too foggy in Hollywood, so the filming of a London fog scene had to be postponed. The Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce will not believe it, but that is what happened on a Set at Warner Bros. studio during the filming of the Cosmopolitan production, "Give Me Your Heart," which comes to the theatre on —_— as a Warner Bros. release. "Weather permitting, film New York street scenes. too foggy, film London street scenese If too foggy for that, use cover set on Stage Ge” In justice to California's far-famed climate and London's equally famous fogs, there was a Special reason why the street scenes in London couldn't be filmed. A luminous "ground fog," which technicians can produce artificially to perfection, was needed for these scenese Instead, it was grey overhead. It was a typical California high fog, clear below but with a murkey ceiling. Not enough light from overhead to make the artificial ground fog luminous enough for photography. Director Archie Le Mayo decided to wait for a day of pright sunshine in which to film his London fog scenes, rather than engage in a guessing game with that most uncertain of elements, fog over filmland. ci rege s ga FRIEDA INESCORT ONCE SECRETARY TO LADY ASTOR There's a pair of world-famous ex-secretaries playing the two most important feminine roles in the Cosmopolitan production, "Give Me Your Heart," which comes to the eeu re “On y as 72 Warner Bros. release.

The other is Frieda Inescort, recently drafted by the moviese She was once secretary to Lady Astore Lady Astor was complimented about Frieda, who is the daughter of the famous London actress and beauty, Elaine Inescorte "Isn't it just too thrilling to have Elaine Inescort's daughter as your secret'ry," was the comment of Lady Astor's friends. That was when Frieda was still in her teens and had determined to follow the footsteps of a famous father rather than those of an even more famous mother. So she was learning writing and secretarial work with a job for her father, Jock Wightman, noted Scottish publisher and drama critic, in mind. Later Frieda became publicity director for Putnam's, the American publishing house, writing many a plurb for books published under that imprint. But the acting career found her out and now "Who's Who" lists her as an actress, not a secretary or publicist.

"I suppose it's human nature to complain, whatever you do and however much you're paid for doing it,” 06 explained. "But every time I catch that fellow Brent grouching about the hardships of a Hollywood film actor's life, I take it up with him in no uncertain terms. "While we are making our scenes in a picture, we work pretty hard. If we have important roles in pictures, we work hard nearly every day the picture is in production, from rushing through an early breakfast in the morning to falling asleep late at night studying dialogue. "Yet even if it weren't highly paid work, it is the kind I'd rather do than any other, some harder, some simply more monotonouSe Most scenes and most pictures are a real kick to me and I enjoy doing them. "Finally, we usually have vacations between pictures, and often a day or so off during the progress of a single production. It's nothing compared to stage work, particularly of playing fn stock."

Warner Bross. release, says there's no one in pictures with whom she'd rather play a difficult scene than Kay Francis. The star has a very difficult, long dialogue scene with Miss Flint on the latter's first day in the cast. There were a good many takes before Director Archie L. Mayo thought the best had been gotten out of the scene. Inevitably, both actresses were nervous. Miss Flint blew up on a single word in her dialogue, after she had spoken line after line perfectly. Kay patted her hand. "Never you mind -next time we'll get it," the star declared. They tried again, and this time it was Kay who missed a word. She was exasperated. "I'm so sorry I had to spoil it, and you were reading those lines so beautifully," she apologized to Miss Flint. The next take was perfect. The instant it was over Kay held out her hand to the other actress. "Congratulations," said shee "You were grand, and this: time-1didn't spoil it: for.vyou.” "Give Me Your Heart" is a powerful drama of mother love and sacrifice, taken from the play by Jay Mallory.
