Ee Glorious Gloria still Glamorous

~ It Takes Makeup to Make La Swanson Look Like 50 -

= By Erskine Johnson -- HOLLYWOQD, May 3—It's still Glorious Gloria. After 50 years, five husbands and three grandchildren,

Gloria Swanson still has to

be “aged” to look 50. She

needs grayer hair, lines in her face.

Paramount studio insisted on it for her role of an ex-silent film star in the picture, “Sunset Boulevard.”

eo was indignant. “Photograph me as I look, » she said. The cameraman »eamed. “You'll photograph like 30,” he said. “She has to look 50,” the studio sald.

“Okay,” said Gloria, “make But I won't feel like it.”

# ” » GLORIA WAS SITTING in the sun—a bright, unflattering sun— on the steps of the, Paramount dressing room building. Unflattering, did I say? Not for Gloria. The lady doesn’t need soft lights and trick shadows. She was wearing a black slack suit and smoking a cigaret in a long gold holder. It was difficult for me to believe that I was 13 the first time I saw her on the screen. She made m pulse jump then and it was jump-| ing again, - » n 1 ASKED HER about those fabulous Swanson stories which| have become part of the old Hol-| lywood. legend.

“Gloria,” people sniffed, it is undignified for a star of her caliber to be seen walking.” Gloria denfed that. “I had just returned from Europe and a serious illness. I was still weak. The doctor ordered that wheel chair.” -

Broaden: Tora Sensitive, Is a Simply Marvelous Show

moment. Enchanted Village By now you certainly know the story of the enchanted Scottish village of Brigadoon, which was placed under a spell in the 18th Century and comes to life for one day each century. Two American boys, Tommy Albright and Jeff Douglas, on a walking trip in Scotland, arrive in the village, not shown on their map, in time for the 1948 awakening. Tommy meets Fiona MacLaren. Jeff meets Meg Brockie (Susan Johnson), one of the drollest female comedians in musical-show literature. This enchanted-village idea could be one awful headache if ft had been done by some of our operetta confectioners. I mention no names. But Messrs. Lerner and Loewe, with superb ballet assistance by the great Agnes De Mille, contrive to make the thing real, plausible and moving.

That's good writing, Give show people a neat, honest and sensitive script. and they'll outdo themselves. Mr. Brooks and Miss Gillette, both admirably cast, project. right across the footlights their non-stagey sincerity. It Surprises You The whole show is non-stagey, in the sense that it never messes with cliches. You can't predict it. You may think you've seen a lot of shows and know just about what's going to happen, but ‘Brigadoon” surprises you—as in the snap-bing sequence fo Meg's
