of his brief ca- i

last August 28.
But though he'd taken his last
curtain call, the show went on
without him.
Director Leo McCarey found

The movie-enaker also pulled out
bis bag of movie tricks and au

shot after his death.
Story of CosBSSuaiat
The story tells about a gov
ernment worker. Walker, who
turns Communist, to the heart
break of his mother, Helen
Hayes, and father. Dean Jag
ger. The tale originally was to
end with a reformed Walker
delivering en anti-Communist
speech ut a college graduation.
But he died before those final
scenes verre taken.
So McCarey changed the sto
ry to hawe Walker dying before
the graduation, and leaving his

could be played at ine.scnooi
ceremonies-
Double Keating was the star
of the recording scene, but the
room is dark and bis beck is
turned to the camera. The close
ups of Walker apparently were
snitched from earlier scenes.
Empty Phone Booth
Walker also is shown phoning
from a public booth at an air
port But the scene was photo
graphed with an empty phone
booth after the actor died. Then
a shot of Walker phoning In an
other scene in the picture .was
inserted into the empty window
glass of the booth.
Luckily, Walker had record1
ed the speech, as a sound test
the Saturday before he died.
The rehearsal turned out to be
his final performance.
HoUvwood already buzzes
with talk that Walker may get
a post-humous Oscar nomina
tion for his fine performance.
In his last interview, even he
admitted that the role was "the
first that gave me a chance to
do some thinking."
