Film Studio “Navy”
There’s a new addition to the M.G.M. Navy. It’s a thirty-foot power cruiser, an exact duplicate of a craft used by sport fishermen in quest of marlin of the Mexican coast. The boat was ordered from a Santa Monica shipbuilder for M.G.M.’s “The Bride,” starring Robert Taylor and Ava Gardner. Delivered and “floated” in the studio’s backlot lake, it will remain a permanent part of the M.G.M. fleet. This also includes the tugboat made famous in “Tugboat Annie,” the nineteenth century sailing clipper ship of “Green Dolphin Street,” a Chinese junk from “The Good Earth” and a World War I sub chaser used in several pictures.
