AUSTRALIAN PLAYER IN “REBECCA"
Judith Anderson, who plays the housekeeper, Mrs Danvers, in “Rebecca,” is a South Australian.’The former opera student left her native Adelaide in 1918, even then bound for Hollywood. She spent a few years in stock companies in New York after failing to gain a place in California. Since then she has toured extensively in England and on the Continent, and she paid her last visit to Australia 12 years ago.
Mae West is going to Columbia for two pictures. She hopes to arrange for a version of “Du Barry Was a Lady.” Old-timer Antonio Moreno has a “bit” role in Universal’s “Seven Sinners.” Moreno does not need to work. He is a rich man and is in the picture because he likes the environment.
