MANNERISMS
AS SEEN AT HOLLYWOOD. Have you ever wondered just what screen players do before the filming of a scene? 1 Joan Blondell says: “They’re the little things in us for which nature makes no carbon copies.” Joan turned inquiring reporter during the filming of , the new Columbia comedy, “Good Giris Go To Paris, Too," in which she I is co-starred with Melvyn Douglas. For example, she discovered that Douglas strides rapidly about the sound stage, entirely oblivious of his surroundings. Walter Connolly lights a cigarette, takes three puffs, and throws it away. Isabel Jeans pats her hair, even though it has been perfectly groomed by the hairdresser. Alan Curtis always tightens the laces of his shoes. Joan Perry takes a hasty drink of water. As for herself, Miss Blondell blushingly confessed her own complex has often caused embarrassment. Walking to the. set she repeats her lines, even for a love scene, out loud. Many a stage hand and electrician has gasped as she walked up to him, starry-eyed, exclaiming, “I love you.”
