Around
Hollywood
By ALINE MOSBV
Hollywood (U.R) Anthony
Quinn may be the surprise suc
cess of the Oscar Derby he's a
favorite to cop
two Academy
Award nomin
ations for two
"Ci n d erella"
roles that at
one time were
- e x p e cted to
fail.
Not since
Laurence
Aiinf Mosby Olivier s
"Hamlet" has an actor in a for
eign film snared an Oscar nom
ination. But Quinn may get
enough votes to be nominated
as best actor for his striking per
formance as a" brutish strong
man in "La Strada," an Italian
movie that's one of the most
successful foreign films in years.
And Anthony appears a shoo
in to snare a nomination and
probably an award for step
ping into the small, supporting
role of Paul Gauguin in "Lust
for Life."
The triumph has even more
meaning for Quinn, because he
kept faith in both roles even
though others around him
thought the films would fail.
No Salary
"Nobody wanted to finance
'La Strada1," Quinn said as we
sat in the Paramount commis
sary. "When I was in Italy for
'Attila' I told the producers I
would walk out unless they also
made 'La Strada.' I did the role
as a favor, a labor of love. I
received no salary.
"I accepted a percentage of
the profits but I haven't seen
that money yet. The picture cost
only $250,000. It's run a year
and a half in Paris, is in its
eighth month in New York and
fourth month here."
The unusual Quinn a true
gem in this city of overexpanded
egos then stepped "down" into
a supporting role. He was on the
screen in "Lust for Life" only
7V4 minutes. But he made the
part so memorable that viewers
felt he was part of the entire
picture. s
Pans 'Stardom'
"I don't believe in all that
star stuff," scoffed the bluntly-
talking actor. "I don't know how
to behave like a star. Never been
to a premiere or Hollywood
party. Been to nightclubs only
twice."
"Lust for Life" was another
surprise box-office smash. Quinn
revealed that during the film
ing it was called "John House
man's Folly," after the producer,
at MGM.
"They thought it would lay a
bomb," he said. "Most of the
cast figured they were in a pic
ture that just the intellectuals
would like, and the critics, and
maybe a few art theaters would
play it.
"But I had faith in the movie.
I kept saying people would like
it. Some people think of art as
something in a dark museum.
Art is becoming a dirty word.
We're ashamed of it. But I think
films are an art form."
Co-Starring With Booth
The sought-after Quinn now
is co-starring with Shirley Booth
at Paramount in "Hot Spell." As
in "Lust for Life" and "La
Strada," he again plays a man
who regards women with casual
cruelty.
'I'm really not hostile to wom
en," the dark-eyed actor laugh
ed. "I've been married for 20
years and have three children,
all girls. I'm gentler at home. I
paint pictures, love to cook and
build houses as a hobby."

Mr. A. W I don't trust our
daughter.
Mrs. A. W. It can't happen
again.
Mr. A. W My wife and I re
cently had a terrible shock. We
learned that an elderly man who
lived in our apartment building
had been molesting our 12-year-old
daughter and that this had
been going on for some time-He
gave our daughter money and
little gifts.
I wanted to report it to the
police at once, but my wife said
that it would get Our daughter
into terrible trouble and she
would be taken away. I threat
ened this man and forced him
to move away from our neigh
borhood. Now I am worried about our
daughter. I feel that she has been
corrupted and this can happen
again. She was severely punish
ed and has promised never again
to do such a thing, but I don't
trust her. I feel that my wife
has made a big mistake in not
reporting this and possibly our
daughter would be better off if
she were placed in a home for
a time, where she would be un
der constant supervision.
Mri. A. W I have heard that
in such cases it is best to mini
mize the whole thing as much
as possible. I did not want our
daughter to have to be question
eded by the police and juvenile
authorities and have to repeat
the story many times. According
to what I heard, this builds the
event up in the child's mind and
makes it an even worse experi
ence. I feel that our daughter has
taken the whole thing very hard
and that she fully realizes the
seriousness of what she has
done. I cannot conceive of its
ever happening again. Our
daughter is a good child. She
didn't quite understand what
was happening at first and later
was too scared to know what to
do about it.
My husband has been work
ing himself up to a crazy pitch
about this thing and I've come
to feel that he blames our daugh
ter and wants her out of the
house. I would never give up my
child to an institution.
Th Council: These parents
not only avoided their responsi
bility as citizens, but cooperated
with a criminal in evading pun
ishment by not reporting this
man to the police. He is now
free to repeat his criminal action
derwent surgery for an injured
shoulder at the Mercy hospital

home here on Sunday. ,
against other children.
Police and iuvenile authori
ties are well aware of Ihe prob
lems of questioning children on
such events and are trained to
do it as tactfully as possible.
This girl would not be placed
in an institution if it was learned
that her parents are responsible
persons and provide a satisfac
tory home.
Although the opinion Mrs. A.
W. heard has been expressed
from time to time, there is much
to be said for the opposite point
of view that repressing and
hiding such an event may make
it a more serious sore spot in
the child's background. A seri
ous wrong has been done here
and the parents should have
availed themselves of the oppor
tunity to give vent to the feel
ings that are now plaguing this
father. The girl herself might be
come more cleansed of the ex
perience through a more thor
ough expose.
Since it is probably too late to
rectify this situation, and since
it would be neither beneficial
nor practical to place this girl
outside her own home, Mr. A. W.
should try to put this idea out of
his mind and see that the girl
is closely supervised from her
own home.
Suspicious prying should be
avoided as much as possible and,
instead, her parents should
watch to see that she has many
activities that really interest her
as well as wholesome relation
ships with girls and boys her
own age and an active interest
in school and church. If she
shows signs of unhappiness or
delinquency, they would do well
to consult with a social worker
attached to a family asency.
