happened to me in Bogota and then
in Los Angeles, a few weeks ago, I
knew people wanted to express I
their appreciation. To Europe, I(
haven't been yet, but 1 was told it's ,
not so good if people whistle. Now ,
what does it mean in Israel?"
"It means tow meod? mezuyan!" i
they shouted back.
He got the Hebrew words trans- 1
lated. Tov meod means "very '
good." Mezuyan is "excellent." I
So he gave another "encore."

HOLLYWOOD.*..
Hollywood ? Which is harder for
an actor? drama or comedy? Com
edy, say today's guest experts.
Jack Carson, Ginger Rogers, and
Actor- Director Richard Whorf.
"It's much easier to make peo
ple cry than to mal'e them laugh,"
said Carson. Miss Rogers com
mented, "A young player can learn
drama more easily than comedy."
She suggested why this is so: "Life
is a drama."
Whorf, directing the other two
in a comedy called "Illegal Brule," !
said: "In drama, the mood carries!
you along. In comedy, the mood !
is changed every second. Comedy j
is superimposed over the story." |
He thinks it's harder to direct com
edy than drama becausp "you're in
venting all the time."
I'd interrupted Whorf in the
business of inventing on the set ,
some business that wasn't in the j
script. Carson lies on a bed, sup- j
posed I y with a horrible hangover.
His hand flops over the side. One
finger gets stuck in the neck of a
champagne bottle. He struggles, j
pulls, and wrenches but can't get :
the bottle off.
Whorf thinks Carson and Rog- 1
ers are a good comedy combina
tion. "He'll fall on the floor to get j
a laugh. She's a high comedienne.
This is wonderful. He feeds her
(gags), and she feeds him."
Carson doesn't believe he's a
comedian "in the pure sense. A
comedian is a guy who thinks fun
ny. With me, thinking funny has
become work; I'm not an involun
tary comedian. Red Skelton is a i
wonderfUl comedian. He's funny all
the time." Jack calls himself an j
actor who plays comedy parts. He ,
likes to think of himself, in fact.t
as an all-around actor. In "Bright
Leaf" he's a generally sober side !

business associate of Gary Cooper.
The physically hardest comedy '
for him was "The Good Humor |
Man." lie got a three stitch gash j
in the jaw, a dislocated sacroiliac, i
a torn muscle along the right ribs,
a torn cartilage along the left, and
a sulphuric acid burn on the back
of the neck. Jack defended the
strenuous slapstick: "It's a very
entertaining picture for kids. Crit
ics are afraid to pan a picture like
that because they know it's going
to make some dough." ?
Carson said the main types of
comedy are word, visual, broad,
subtle, and situation. "Situation is
the hardest. You shoot with a gun
(meaning the camera) and find
out six months later (from the
audience) whether you've hit any !
thing."
