proval and Don Ameche and Tyrone Power, standing on the sidelines, smile encouragement. In the picture, Alice plays a singer who entertains in Power’s saloon. As we stand watching the scene, Tyrone leans over and says to me: “She can sing in my saloon, any day.” “The Great Garrick” is not the usual costume picture but a dizzy comedy in fancy clothes. Most exciting episode in the film is where a group of French actors, believing Brian Aherne is an English snob, take over an inn and try to frighten the life out of him. Every member of the staff of the inn is an actor and they are all out to haze Garrick. We watch Director James Whale shoot a scene in a blacksmith shop where Brian Aheme surprises one of the conspirators and makes him confess the plot. Aherne, dressed in silks and satin has to knoca out the pseudoblacksmith and change clothes with him. Director Whale chuckles as he explains the scene to us. "They'll probably kill us In England when they find out u hat we have done to Garrick,” he says. Whale, who directed "The Road Back” at Universal, and who burns up when that picture or even the studio is mentioned, Is as happy in his present assignment as r boy let out of school. "To the devil with high-brow stuff," he says, "give me something entertaining like this.” On the "Black Lightning” set at M. G. M., we run across a bit of offstage drama. Virginia Gray, playing her first lead in this picture, receives a visit from Florence Rice, tne actress she used to stand in for. “Turn about is fair play,” says Florence, "I'll stand in for you.” She gets out before the camera and does it, a leading woman standing in for her former stand'n’The rest of the company Is amused and a little thrilled, for Hollywood loves to be reminded it is a place where you may be> a nobody one day and a celebrity the next.
