Show I run roir the Whole ramiiy I STAR i DUST t Movie Radio J By VIRGINIA VALE UpHE Prisoner of Zenda" 1 threatens to become everybody's favorite picture. Girls love it because it is ten-derly romantic, boys are crazy about it because it is a thrilling adventure story, and the old folks like the pomp and circumstance of the court scenes. Of course, the mere fact of Ronald Colman's pres-ence is enough to bring crowds to the box offices. He plays a dual role and the only complaint is that Madeline Carroll does not play two parts too. She is probably the most utterly charming hero-ine of the year any year. Hollywood had a lot of surprises recently that sent all the girls '' .VSf i scurrying out to buy presents. Miriam Hopkins up and eloped with Anatol Litvak, the director, and Alice Faye and Tony Martin rushed oft to Yuma, Ariz., and got married Religious differences had caused the breaking of their en- - hM gagement several Miriam times, she being Hopkins Catholic, he Jewish. To make matters more complicated both had anti-marria-clauses in their contracts with Twentieth Century-Fox- . The studio has forgiven them, but par-ents are said to be still pouting. Mr. Litvak, Miss Hopkins' new groom, has just finished directing Claudette Colbert in "Tonight's Our Night," at Warner Brothers'. No one over there will ever forget him. In a scene that took place in a market he insisted on having real geese, turkeys, and chickens. The hot sun got in its deadly work and players had great difficulty going through their scenes without hold-ing their noses. Finally the studio had to replace the poultry every few hours, but all attempts to use papier mache ones failed. Mr. Lit-vak detected the imitations at once and refused to work until real ones were provided. Claudette Colbert's good humor made a host of friends for her on the Warner lot and everyone is sorry that she was loaned to them for only one picture. One afternoon almost everyone' nerves were shat-tered by the many repetitions of a scene. While she was talking to Charles Boyer, a dog was supposed to come in carrying a shoe in its mouth. Over and over the scene was played, but the dog never came in at just the right moment. Finally Miss Colbert, serene and fresh as m April morning, suggested that the director let the dog play the scene with Boyer and she would tome in on all fours carrying a ihoe in her mouth! Ever since James Cagney walked jut of the Warner studio and went to work for Grand National where be is as happy as can be, there nave been battles between the stu-dio and their players. Now Joan Blondell is on strike. She thinks she has been working too hard and refuses to start on the new picture scheduled for her. Kay Francis is trying to break her contract . . . says that she signed it only be-cause they promised to give her the leading role in "Tonight's Our Night" And, after all, they gave the role to Claudette Colbert.
