United frmu
Hollywood, May 1 (U.R)
A man who'i made more movies
than anybody said today it'd
be a good thing
' f Hollywood
burned down
all the stunios
and moved out
of town to
hoot pictures.
That's Allan
Dwan'i opinion
when he's
had a tough
day.
And even
when every
thing's gone
Virginia.
KsveFherswfi
along just dan
dy he still thinks the movie-makers
ought to get out of town to
grind out their epics.
"They've lost the feel of life,"
Dwan said. "They're all racing
hell-bent to see which one can
drive himself to Forest Lawn
first."
Forest Lawn is the town's
most expensive graveyard and
Dwan will tell you that's where
some of the "bright boys" should
be anyhow.
He tells them so, too. They
take it, too. Because Dwan is
lust about the No. 1 veteran In
the business. He got into it by
mistake back in 1907 and since
then he's directed 1708 movies
in 43 years.
Wouldn't Blamt 'Em
That's almost more'n any
horiy'd wanta look at in a whole
lifetime, come to think of it.
Dwan said he wouldn't blame
them if the movies were like a
lot of "this junk they're turning
out now."
"I learned to be a director
the hard way," he explained. "I
came out here as an inventor
and an engineer. I had some
work to do on movie set and
the director had quit. So I took
over."
He has been doin' it ever since.
Back in the old days he whipped
out three movies a week some
weeks. And had fun at it.
"I still do," says Dwan, now
white-haired and handsome in
his 60s. "The day I stop get
ting a bang out of it I'll quit. Go
into television."
Would Altar Locale
Dwan'a all for making movies
in the town where the action's
supposed to take place.

go to Wichita," he said. "And
use all the Wichita natives you
can cram into the cast. That'e
how you get the feel of a town.
"It's also a lot cheaper to use
real trees and mountains and
lakes and rivers. You don't have
to foot the bills for making up
fake ones that always look like
fakes anyhow,"
If they'd let him, Dwan'd
probably use natives for the
leading roles, too.
Story Makes Movie
"They'd be more natural," he
argued. "And show me the town
that doesn't have one or two
born actors. Besides, it's not the
stars that make a movie good.
It's the story."
That's another pet beef of
his.
"Screen writers have forgotten
how to write real stories," Dwan
says. "They may have known
once before they got to Holly
wood. But a few years of this
big dough and fancy living soft
ens 'em up to a point where
they all turn out the same pap."
