a hard time telling just why. But even the sleepiest moviegoer “Should not require more ‘than a couple of jabs in the ribs from his wife to notice the latest innovation. It is so new that it has been ‘used in oniy two pictures to the fullest extent, and has no particular name. If widely adopted a halidozen related techniques in film production will be affected. ‘ * This development is the camera technique through which extreme depth of field is achieved, meaning in non-technical language that you can put the heroine 40 feet from the camera, start her toward it, and end with a full closeup all in focus and without a break. . Everything else in that particular scene will be in focus, too, from side to side and front to -back. Doesn’t sound so wonderful, does it? But if you have not seen it yet, you have a surprise coming.

Hollywood Talk

IDA LUPINO will star in “Juke Girl,” adapted from the Saturday Evening Post story. aie Katharine Hepburn; we're beginning to believe, is literally versatile. In her new picture with

Spencer Tracy, “Woman of the Year,” she’s to hold short conversations in Spanish, Greek, French, Russian, German and. Yiddish. , If you saw “Life Begins for Andy Hardy,” you may remem-\ ber the young chap who, hungry and overstrained, died in Mickey Rooney's room. His name is Ray McDonald and for his work (which was excellent) in that film, he’s been assigned .roles in two of Metro's big musicals for the year, “Babes on Broadway” and “Panama Hattie.” If there’s such a thing as in- . herited talent, Marjorie Main (to be seen in “Honky Tonk,” soon

she got hers. “From my father,” she asserted. “He was a preacher (once holding a pastorate at Elkhart, Ind.) and I do declare, he knew more about acting than any man I ever saw.”

‘Love'—By Boyer

UPON THE advantages of tenderness in winning the favor of Charles (Woo-Wo0) Boyer has penned these remarks for Paramount: “I believe that if a woman is treated tenderly and with con--sideration, she in turn will express the same tenderness and

“In spite of all that has been said against them, women are human. (Why, Mr. Boyer!) Fundamentally, they have the same reactions as men. They wish to be treated with kindness and consideration; they enjoy - flattery; they appreciate compliments; revel in small thoughtfulnesses; they .enjoy having their egos expanded.” And we should say now that Mr. Boyer will be seen at the Circle, beginning Oct, 3, in “Hold Back the Dawn.” After you, milady!

S ® t ” J. Dorsey Coin Tops TO JIMMY DORSEY goes the credit for getting the most out of Hollywood in the way of “name bands.” For five weeks’ work at Paramount, he will receive about $75,000, taking $10,000 for himself and distributing the rest among Singers Bob Eberly and Helen O'Connell and the band. The picture will be “The Fleet's In,” musical version of “Sailor Beware.” Dorothy Lamour will be the feminine star and the schedule called for the first day of work yesterday. . . . Title of a new play by a Chicago newspaperman is “Let's Kill a Critic.” The central character is a takeoff on the brains behind the: Capone mob who, getting restless after a dozen years’ inactivity, decides to bag a few Broadway . critics.

Being Funny Tires Reggie

Gardiner Believes.

. HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 16 (U. P).— Reginald Gardiner says he is through with comedy, not for ‘any

arty reasons but because he thinks he can get bigger pay checks doing other- things. For years, he said, directors have been making such statements as: “This scene needs some comedy. Have Reggie run in and make a funny face.” Once you get a reputation like that, he said, you're in the deepest rut in pictures. “You have to go on ‘being funny the rest of your life,” he said. “This is a strain on both the pocketbook and the facial muscles. It’s better to play parts, if you know what I mean. Heavies, characters, even whimsical persons. Men can go on doing that for years.” Mr.. Gardiner has a serious part now in “Captains of the Clouds” for Warner Bros. -His decision to stop “being funny on the screen resulted in his suspension hy a major studio. He became a - free-lance player and as such landed his current job. . But you never can tell about directors.. : On the “Clouds” set the other day Director Michael Curtiz called-to Mr. Gardiner:
