Show Comedy Stars Also Artists Not satisfied with just being fine actors, all the principal players play-ers in Twentieth Century-Fox's outstanding comedy, "Mr. Belvedere Belve-dere Rings the Bell," now at the Pioneer Motor-Vu Theater, are rabid art enthusiasts. Cfilton Webb, who again assumes as-sumes the Belvedere role, was hailed as a juvenile genius when his first paintings were exhibited in New York at the age of 14. Lovely Joanne Dru and Hugh Marlowe both admit they relax a good deal of the time with brush, paint and canvas, though neither have exhibited their work public- Zero Mostel, the noted comedian, comed-ian, is the only one of the cast who was a true pi'ofessional. At the age of nine, Zero surprised surpris-ed Sunday visitors to New York's Metropolitan Museum by copying exactly his favorite painting John Alexander's "Study in Black and Green." His comic career undoubtedly un-doubtedly started the day when, with a crowd watching over his velvet-clad shoulder, he. solemnly copied the whole painting upside down. |
