Star-dust in Hollywood 1 ' Now try it over. Ready ?" " Music ! " From the darkness behind the big sun-arcs a violin wailed and a harmonium grunted like a passionate duet between a musical hyena and a melodious wart-hog. The director MEASURING OFF: REHEARSING THE FIGHT allowed a few moments for this stimulus to work on the feelings of his actors, then through the megaphone bellowed : " Go ! " The actors sprang into motion. But Von Sternberg was not satisfied. He bellowed " Stop ! " through the megaphone, and, turning the instrument toward the musicians, shouted : " That tune's no good. Stir us up a bit. Put more battle spirit into it. Gee, nobody feels like fighting to a damned waltz ! " [78]
