of machine gun bullets on the fence look dangerously like the real thing. But they are movie tricks The shrapnel is a timed powder charge shot into the air from a njortar off to one side of the set The machine gun bullets are smaller powder charges laid in a string along the top of the fence and set off by electricity. The only chance the extra really takes Is of getting rock dust in his eyes. The Astaire-Rogers set is supposed to be closed while he does a difficult solo dance, but we manage to get on. It is a very trick number. Astaire is doing a tap routine in the engine room of an ocean liner. All the wheels are whirling gadgets are in synchronization with the music. This is an idea Director Mark Sandrich has been saving since he took a trip to Panama several years ago. But it was expensive and he didn’t get to use it until “Shall We Dance” (new title for "Stepping Toes”). The larger moving parts of the machinery are on rheostats which keep them in rhythm. Behind frosted glass partitions are other gadgets. You see them as shadows. They are driven by hand-motors, with a trap drummer from the musical department turning the crank. Over on the Samuel Goldwyn lot, we watch Miriam Hopkins and Joel McCrea do a scene in their fifth picture together, "The Woman’s Touch”. They have been sitting at a table eating Brown Derby lamb stew all morning, only in the [isture it is supposed to be a dish called "Hunter’s frush”. , Also at the table are Leona Maricle and Erik Rhodes, the Oklahoma actor, whom casting directors won’t let play anything but foreigners. He's doing a Frenchman here. When you have been on a Miriam Hopkins set for a few minutes, you discover that this actress likes to have a good deal to say about her pictures. Director John Blystone listens to all of her suggestions courteously, but some of the cast are inclined to tease. McCrea, for instance. "The Woman's Touch” Is a comedy like "My Man Godfrey” and requires a speedy tempo. Pretending to be very worried, J cel went to Miss Hopkins "Miriam,” he said, “Heaven knows how this picture is going to turn out I’m no good at fast ' dialogue. You know me. When I , start to talk people say: ‘Why ' doesn't he get a boras ?* ”
