Hollywood U Many a movie director rants about the problems of dealing with stars and combating "temperament" but not Curtis Bernhardt who is happiest when he's surrounded by a bevy of beautiful actresses. Since coming to Hollywood, Bernhardt has guided the film work of some of the world's top actresses, and he loudly derides the old saw about beauty being only skin deep- "That's just glib nonsense," snaps Bernhardt "Beauty is the result of inner talent and radi ance. That 'skin deep' baloney Is just propaganda put out by the gals who just don't have it." Beauties Work Hard The director contends he's rarely known a beautiful actress who isn't a hard worker. "A beautiful woman usually scorns getting by on her physical charms." he said. "Take Rita Hayworth, for example. "We just finished making 'Miss Sadie Thompson' at Colum bia, and I've never known a glamor girl who worked harder to get a scene or a dance just right , "You hear people say, 'She's beautiful all right, but she al ways plays herself." "Uh, uh," Bernhardt said, shaking his head. "These girls saving driving.

VMTfMSr know they'd wind up without jobs if they kept playing the same type in every film, so they work hard to be different" He said La Hayworth's Sadie Thompson is vj5tly different from her perfornySnce as Salome- "What's more, I honestly be lieve that Rita has given an Academy Award performance. I may be prejudiced," he said, "but she has turned la a truly great, believable role." Others Work. Toe Bernhardt said Rita isnt the only glamor gal who works over time at doing a good job. He rattled off the names of Lana Turner, Bette Davis, Barbara Stanwyck, Joan Crawford and Jane Wyman all of whom he has directed in pictures. "There isn't a girl in that lineap who doesn't give the best there is in her when she's in front of the cameras.' They couldn't have reached the top by taking the line of least resistance and depending on the faces and figures alone." NO COVER CHARGE Budapest (U.R) In accord ance with the new Hungarian policy, promising a higher stand ard of living, entrance fees in most Budapest restaurants were abolished.
