■ »‘-a By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright. i*34 Kifig Feature* syndicate. Ina. HOLLYWOOD, Calif. A private showing here of the Eng-lish-made "Catherine the Great” has dealt another blow to the patronizing attitude Hollywood likes to

Marlene Dietrich

< take towards , British motion I pictures. The film col- ' ony got the first shock to its com- ( placency from the robust and ribald “Private Life of Henry > VIII.” Now i ■ comes a costume picture in a serious vein that unmistakably gives - Paramount’s "Scarlet Em • press”something to shoot at By the same I token, the bril-

liant performance of the Austrian actress, Elizabeth Bergner, will become a measuring stick for Marlene Dietrich’s portrayal of the same character. In appearance and method, the , I two actresses are widely dissimilar. .Miss Bergner has none of the languorous beauty nor the glamor of a ’ Dietrich. She is short and almost plain. But she has vitality, resourcefulness, authority. And despite an accent stronger than Dietrich’s was even in the beginning she is an eloquent reader of English lines. Needless to say, Hollywood already has put in a bid for Miss Bergner. She is under contract to Joseph M. Schenck and will make a picture for United Artists next 1 i year. They would be glad to have j her sooner, but she is the star of I Charles B. Cochran’s London hit, i “Escape Me Never," and is already set to bring the same play to Broadi way next fall under the banner of | Arch Selwyn. “Catherine the Great” will be of i I added interest to American audi- 1 1 enees because Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. plays the unhappy Czar Peter. ’ That he comes off second best to ’ Miss Bergner is no disgrace for he rives the finest performance of his •areer. Especially in the latter nart of the story where the youthful emperor is letting his suspicions ! drive him to madness. Interesting, too, that this story , >f Catherine should resist the obvius drama of her many lovers. The atherine here is the young wife,

fighting vainly to keep the affection of het husband. The picture ends as she overthrows him and attains her destiny, the throne of Russia. For four years, the Danish actor Cari Brisson has received a gardenia a day from a mysterious woman admirer. In London, she had it delivered to the theater where he was playing. On shipboard when the star was coming to America, he found the flower every morning on his breakfast table. Now, it comes to Brisson’s hotel in Beverly Hills. The only time the sender missed a day was when the actor was on the train en route from New York to California. Walter Futter, Hollywood producer, can tell you where to find the last of the great fleet of square-rig-gers that used to carry American I commerce to the seven seas. There ■ are only fifteen of these gallant vessels left and they ply between Australia and England. No wireless masts rise upon these ships. They sail around the tip of South America, so far from traveled sea-lanes that they would sink before help could reach them anyway. Ironically, it is the very slowness of these wind-jammers that keeps them in demand For their cargoes are England's winter wheat and the Australian shippers get free storage of the grain for the six months of the passage. Take it from Bill Rankin, he
