'V AS IN BARNTJM 253 on this exit What do bearded ladies carry? She should be knitting all the time, a little bit of a sweater, everybody stops and says, 'Oh?' She looks up at them and smiles with this big bearded smile The thin man is probably terrifically brave. ... But the Bearded Lady has to be the most feminine, lovely thing you've got, with black satin shoes and pretty feet. Sebastian stops and sees these lovely feet and you see the look come in his eyes and he starts up and he's just about to make a crack—camera going up with him—and you see his expression suddenly change, this face with this muff! Say her name is Eloise. She should always be crocheting or tatting— no, needlepoint. That's very feminine. All queens did it. She should be very attractive. Only she's got a beard! Other women protect their hair in the rain. The Bearded Lady protects the beard. Holds her two hands over it. Writer: The double doors on the car have been opened for the Fat Lady to get in. Two or three of them helping her in. Could we go right from the loading of the elephants to the loading of the Fat Lady? DeMille: Sure. The Fat Lady should have the same charac- teristic Writer: She collects romantic novels. At this point, the writer working on the Jody version comes in, and asks about the aerial contest between Holly and Sebas- tian. Jody Writer: If Holly wins the first round, it looks like the duel is over. I think she has to lose the first round. DeMille: I don't care who wins or loses. She does a wonderful something and the audience applauds and Sebastian ap- plauds. Then Sebastian does 18 hand spins. Then Holly gets ready to do another and the Ringmaster blows his whistle. 'Come on down! You should have been down five minutes ago!' Your point about Holly being put in the center ring
