i to bo much bother, but the deg is an important cnaracter in the picture and McCarey has to keep on trying until he finds one. Every wile is used on “Skippy*’. They show him a white rubber mouse and then let him see Grant put it in his upper coat pocket. The trainer gives the dog a fight talk before every take. But “Skippy” is showing these actors that they haven’t a thing on him when it comes to temperament. His favorite trick is to run towards Grant, then dodge just as the actor holds out his arms for him. "What is this?” says McCarey finally, "did we ask for a broken field runner?” Then, just as it looks as if it will be simpler to keep the dog and replace Grant, Skippy suddenly decides to do the trick. The fagged out actors hurry to get out from under the lights. McCarey says grimly: "Nice work, Skippy—and thank you, too, Mr. Grant.” In the Columbia picture, “It’s All Yours”, the hero is an American playboy and the heroine is an American girl, the secretary of his rich uncle. Surprisingly enough, on visiting the set, you find Francis Lederer playing the hero and Madeleine Carroll the heroine. This is one of Lederer's ambitions, to play a straight American role, and he is trying valiantly to eliminate his accent. What luck he’s had in other scenes we don’t know, but in the one we watch, where he is shouting excitedly into a telephone, h e I sounds about as much like an American a s ES? 'Wj Bob Burns Ks sounds like MgSfe M George Arliss. ■» " aS The studio fx probably will I resort to the usual out of a saying that the hero was edu- ~ cated in Europe. Madeleine Carroll How they'll explain Madeleine Carroll’s clipped British phrasing is another matter. But she is so easy to look at that who cares. And, according to Director Elliott Nugent, she is going to give her best performance in this picture. .
