Strains of "Rio Rita" for Bebe Daniels; "Wedding of the Painted Doll" for Bessie Love or Anita Page and the song hits from "Sunny Side Up" for Janet Gaynor or Charles Farrell. Once when Marion Davies was a dinner guest at one of the big hotels, the orchestra practically confined itself to "Marianne."
Los Angeles dance places fold early, and then people hit the night club trail. There are the fashionable Olsen's Club and the rowdy, merry Cotton Club. Both cafes have elaborate floor shows at midnight and on into the wee hours.
You are liable to see almost anyone in the motion picture world at Olsen's artmodern club. I've seen John McCormack, the Irish tenor, Grace Moore, Bebe Daniels and Ben Lyon, Colleen Moore, Thomas Meighan, Charles Farrell, Robert Montgomery, Sally O'Neill and Molly O'Day, and a score of other luminaries.
There are usually three or four stage plays running in Los Angeles and Hollywood. As would be expected in a community of theatrical people, the motion picture stars seldom miss the opportunity of seeing a good play. Edmund Lowe and Lilyan Tashman are inveterate theatregoers. They usually attend the opening night performance, but not always. Their theatre broker always gets them the same "up-front" seats.
Norma Talmadge, usually with Gilbert Roland, and Constance Talmadge with her husband, Townsend Netcher, as a rule select a quiet night at the theatre. They seldom wear evening clothes. Indeed, Norma appears actually shabby on occasions. As a rule you will see them hurry from the theatre before the lights go up.
Gloria Swanson is a frequent patron of the theatre. Gloria, excepting on opening nights when she has her reputation to consider as a best-dressed lady, wears smart, simple street clothes with a small hat pulled well over the eyes. There have been many nights when she passed unnoticed.
Phil Holmes is pretty much of a recluse but you do see him regularly at the theatre. Sometimes he is with a married couple, but seldom alone with a girl. Once, at least, he did beau Jean Arthur to a play. I think it was at "Street Scene."
Jetta Goudal, when she was a De Mille star, was always a glamorous figure at opening nights. I'll never forget the time when her chauffeur got mixed in the time, and piloted the limovisine up to the curb at the end of the second act. Jetta was cold and furious. However, all chauffeurs get Hail Columbia if they aren't first in line at the close of a performance.
Unlike New York, Hollywood people give their dinner parties in their homes as a rule. There are many successful hostesses, and an unending round of parties in the movie city.
Ruth Chatterton has numerous dinner parties, always in small groups. Some of her friends include Lois Wilson, Frances Starr, Mrs. Leslie Carter, and visiting celebrities in the theatre. Conversation is the entertainment at these affairs, and
they last far into the night around the fire in Ruth's upstairs library. She has the faculty of drawing about her the most interesting people. Perhaps she comes the nearest to holding what is termed so grandly, a salon.
Time was when Carole Lombard visited all the dance places, but now William Powell and she might be an old married couple. They belong to the exclusive little coterie which revolves around Mr. and Mrs. Richard Barthelmess, Ronald Colman, and Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Torrence. They entertain back and forth all the time. Clive Brook invites his friends over for tennis on his electrically lighted courts.
Mary Pickford does a lot of entertaining in her home, changing off with big parties at the Mayfair and Embassy Clubs. Mary's parties, you know, are durned exclusive. When you are invited up to Pickfair you can snub Mrs. Vanderbilt. Marion Davies, Bebe Daniels, Pola Negri and Constance Talmadge entertain in their beach homes at Santa Monica.
You'd expect Harpo Marx to do utterly insane things, but his major vice is backgammon.
Just recently he invited a young lady out for the evening. They went to the home of a friend of Harpo's, and the comedian and the host played backgammon until all hours. The young lady was left to twiddle her thumbs or play mumbly-peg on the front lawn.
Leave it to Louise Fazenda to find an unusual way to spend the evening. She gets herself all rigged up in outlandish clothes and visits the state society meetings or the lonesome clubs. She has a grand time exchanging recipes for preserves with Iowa housewives, or talking about the corn crop with Illinois farmers. It sounds like a press agent's dream, but I happen to know it is true.
Greta Garbo often drops into a little neighborhood theatre for a view of new pictures. Once, I remember, she caused a sensation by paying an unannounced visit to "Anna Christie" while it was showing at a big theatre in Los Angeles. I have seen her in public in the evening but twice. Once at the opera in the company of John Gilbert, and once at the Puppet Show in the quaint Mexican quarter of the city. The puppeteers had designed a Garbo figure and placed it in the act. Greta was fascinated, and she went again and again.
The public doesn't see much of Marlene Dietrich, either. Here is a star who does go to bed early. However, she does frequent the theatre.
Most of the stars visit the small, outlying neighborhood picture houses. They seldom venture into the bright lights of do^vntown Los Angeles. Recognition means mobs of people.
Holl>'-vvood isn't entirely frivolous. You see a glittering galaxy of famous personages at the opera, the concerts, and during the summer, at the open air concerts in the Hollywood Bowl. "Symphonies Under The Stars" they arc called, which is dressing up the staid symphony with a little motion picture flaniboyancy. Argentina,
