character until the next shot Is ready. A few, of course, don't do it. Muni never steps out of character. But most of the stars do, and it’s often amusing to see the contrast between the few minutes before the camera and the relaxation that follows Over at Waiter Wanger's, we discover Joan Bennett, George Raft and Walter Pidgeon In a tense scene for "House Across the Bay.” Raft, just escaped from Alcatraz and still wearing the prison garb underneath his overcoat, Is standing with his back ' against a door covering the other i two with an automatic. Two minutes later the scene is ' over and the players scatter Raft to plump himself Into a canvas chair, Pidgeon to go to his dressing room and Joan to talk with Producer Wanger who has come on the set. •'How was that scene In the white dress’" she asks him. We start to laugh and, as soon as she realizes what she has said, so does Joan. • You know what that louse is going to do,” she tells Wanger. ■ He is going to put It In the pa|>er that I am more Interested in my drees than I was In my acting.” Th* new Wallle Beery Him.
