Embarrassing Beard
Australia's John McCallum felt himself to be Britain's most embarrassed screen star during the whole of his recent production, "It Always Rains On Sunday," which he made for Michael Balcon at Ealing Studios. His role as the escaped convict called for him to wear a stubby beard and he had to grow it himself. "It ruined my social life," was his complaint. "When I had to go to a first night or anything like that, I slunk in furtively after everyone else had entered. Naturally, I didn't go out more than was necessary."
