Phone 43 At The Depot PARK THEATRE PROGRAM HOLLYWOOD (UP) Before he became an actor, Wendell Corey used to see the same movies as many as 256 times. It was just a job then. Corey didn't realize until much later that he was absorbing knowledge about acting that has been invaluable. "I don't go to movies now be cause I want to and I didn't then," Corey explained. "I was getting paid for it. Jobs were scarce and about the only thing 1 could find to pay my board bill was a job on the lowest rung in show business, as a checker in theaters. "I had to go to movies all day long to make sure that theaters were keeping their contracts with the distribution companies." During his employment, Corey saw "Sergeant York" 256 times. "When I shaved in the morning, I half expected to see Gary Coop er's face," he said. Gets Leading Role After seeing probably more pic tures than anybody else in the act ing business, Corey decided to be come an actor himself. He got the leading male role in "Dream Girl" on Broadway, a Hal Wallis con tract, and currently a part in Wal lis' Paramount production, "The Accused." "I saw pictures so many times that 1 got so I wasn't watching them for entertainment but start ed analyzing the work of the dif ferent players," Corey said. 'At the time, I didn't realize how much good it was doing me. Believe me, I have fallen back on memories of characterizations a lot of times since I first got a job in summer stock." There were some moments In Corey's job as a checker when he did more than look at movies. "1 remember once when a hit picture was playing one of the theaters I was checking," he said. "In prowling around, I found the "The house was always full but few people were buying tickets at the box office. managers brother selling tickets at a slight discount at the back door." Accent Difficult Role In Movies HOLLYWOOD UP' Acqiring a foreign accent and keeping it the same through six or eight weeks of disconnected movie making is one of the hardest jobs for an actor. 'It's a very simple matter to get an accent for a stage show, where you go right through a sustained performance," explained Vincent Price, whose speech is one of the most perfect to be found in movies "But it's different in the movies, because scenes which come right together in the finished picture may be filmed weeks apart. II your accent varies, the difference is v.-ry obvious." Price is using a German accent,, ' one of his best, in his current role in Universal-I n t e r u a t i o n a 1 ' s "Rogue's Regiment " a story of the world's greatest manhunt, with a background of the present-day French Foreign Legion in Indo- China. It is the first lime he has played a German since his first hit on Broaday opposite Helen Hayes in "Victoria Regina". His accent was so perfect that many theatergoers thought he was German. Prince Impressed It's r:t ill rather perfect, although Price hasn't used it in between. While he was making "Hogue's Regiment," the former Prince Otto of Austria watched him in a scene. "After it was over the prince started talking to me in German," Price said. "I had to admit I didn't know a word of it." It's so easy for Price to imitate almost any kind of accent that he sometimes has to be careful he doesn't imitate one unwittingly. "The other day a newspaper man from Atlanta, Ga., visited the set," he said. "I talked to him for about five minutes and then I had to go back to work. "After exactly one line, director Bob Florey stopped the .scene. Completely without noticing it, my German accent had acquired a southern flavor." Argument Convinces ! SALT LAKE CITY (UP) A 1 91-year-old motorist here thinks ! he's in better health than most i younger drivers. He has one con 1 vinc-ing argument. Mads M. Christensen stands on his head to silence skeptics. The enthusiastic motorist drives a 1923 model car. "I'll be dag- nabbed if I would want to go back to the old horse-and-buggy days," he smiles. He bought the car 23 years ago. Christensen credits his health to eating only two meals a day, grow ing a beard and not smoking or drinking. He thinks men would be healthier if they wouldn't shave.
