It to where Tyrone cornea tea t® his village sweetheart after killing a few bulls and boastfully displays a press clipping telling about his achievements. it real’/ to a sarcastic item but the hero can t read and believes that it is praise. Linda has to tell him differently. The girl Is full of pity and love, the man of rage. Compared to many acenes you watch on sets, this one is full of dramatic flreworks. Yet, when It is over. Director Kouben Mamoulian tells me: "For us. these studio shots seem antl-climatic because, down in Mexico, every second we were afraid something horrible would happen For instance, if we had happened to be photographing the bullfight on the day that Balderas was killed, many people would have felt that we were some way to Marne—that we brought bad luck." Bullfighters are just as super* stitious as bullfight fans. Mamoulian says. Just before Bairedas was killed, he had presented a new matador with his first sword and caps (eapei. The young matador had bought himself an elaborate yellow costume for the occasion. The day after the tragedy, how* ever, he came and sold it to the movie company Because of hi® sponsor's death, he feared the costume would bring bad luck. There is a lot of fun to be had on the set of "Love Craay." the new Kure with Myrna Loy and BMI roll. Thia week I watch Director Jack Conway shoot a sequence where Powell is supposed to be undergoing a lunacy test. He has pretended to be ctary to hold up his wife's divorce action. The gag boomerangs They send him up before a lunacy commission and now he to trying to prove that he L* Mine. They put him through the familiar test of Atting square blocks in square holes and round balls in round holes. All this time, a mirror to reflecting light upon his face. There to a gag for Bill to communicate with his attorney, by writing on a piece of paper and holding It up so that the lawyer, standing behind him can read the message in the mirror Somebody suddenly recalls that the words will have to be written back wants You think it's easy? Four people make the attempt. It to Director Conway s effort that la finally used.
