Larry can sing as potently with a lady clasped in his arms as he can when he is across the room. But then it has always been a boast of his that he can sing sitting down, standing on his head, or from under the divan. He ridicules the standoffish love technique of the average singer ; and while you frequently wonder why he doesn't blast the ears off his screen love with the power of emotion he pours on her at short range, you are fully impressed with the realism Tibbett puts into his love making ! But the most stubborn of all screen lovemakers is none other than Bing Crosby, who has never spoken a word of love dialogue in a single picture he has made ! And, what's more, it isn't likely he will begin at this late date. Bing's reasons are certainly logical as they apply to his own case : "Speaking love dialogue makes me very self-conscious," he will explain if you ask him. "It makes me feel foolish and ill at ease, and when a player is nervous about what he is saying, he certainly can't be very convincing in his love scenes. When you come right down to it, there is very little original dialogue that can be spoken. After the customary 'I love you' declaration, the situation is pretty well summed up. The actor making love in a modern romance would be snickered off the screen if he declared 'You remind me of a moonbeam.' But you can sing a love song and get in all the individuality and poetry you like without appearing ridiculous. That's the reason I insist on singing the lovemaking in my pictures. Romeo is the only guy who ever got away with dialogue of of the same idea!" Certainly none of Bing's admirers are complaining. Perhaps it wouldn't be fair to tell the name of the charming girl star who just won't speak the line, "I love you," in a movie scene. As I heard the story, this particular girl has said those words to one man only in her life. And she has sworn she will not say it to another, not even a make-believe sweetheart on the screen. Oh, she doesn't become temperamental about it, or make a big scene. But it is pretty cute the way she dodges the issue. If those three little words happen to crop up in the script, she changes them in some simple way or adds words to them, or between them, so cleverly that the director and script writers are seldom aware that she has never once uttered the phrase "I love you" in a motion picture ! So far as I know there have been no conscientious objectors to hand-holding, but with romance what it is in the most imaginative town in the world, you never know what we won't be seeing in love scenes of the future! Frank Albertson and Mary Carlisle put conviction in a lovers' quarrel scene for a new film. Beautiful Baffler Continued from page 51 with big white frogs, and she was sitting with her feet on a low table and absorbing a dish of tea as we went into our sedate conversational waltz. "Well, I'm going back to Hollywood in a week, and I'm glad of it," she said. "New York seems to be getting crazier all the time. People expect me to ;Stay up till morning every time I go out." This sounded pretty middling strange to me. "I thought you came to New York to have fun. Haven't you had it?" "No," she said, and she obviously meant no. "But I've crossed your trail everywhere. I saw you at the Hurdy-Gurdy Ball, and I know you go to this Saturday night dancing-club." "That's true," said Irene. "But what with staying out all night and interviewing tenors all day, I've had a hard month. That's what I laughingly call my 'rest.' Tenors all day !" "Why the tenor-singers?" "For 'Show Boat,' which I start as soon as I get back. You have no idea how hard it is to find a good tenor who can act, or a good actor who can sing tenor. They are hunting just as hard in Holly wood, but none of us has found the man w,e want for Ravcnal, the male lead." "This sounds pretty grim. What else have you been doing?" "Nothing much, except going to my singing-teacher every day to keep the pipes in trim." She was striking a sort of wistful note. I'm probably just a sentimental old fuddyduddy, but to me there is something stupendously pathetic about Irene Dunne's efforts to kick up and make whoop-ti-do on her holidays. She sort of reminds me of a kid who has been looking forward for weeks to a surprise-party for a pal down the block — and when the great night comes she gets spots on her best dress, doesn't enjoy the ice cream much, and finds her best beau being called out in "Post-Office" by a rival beauty. Irene approaches her vacations with such eagerness and zest, and somehow the bubbles go out of it. She dresses up like a girl on her honeymoon, she goes to all the places and does all the things, and somehow the glorious adventure just doesn't come off. In spite of the pretty clothes, the luxury hotel and all the good will in the world,
