proposed to whom. "I don't remember. I
think we proposed to each other at the same
time." Then he added, "Does it matter?"
He seemed not at all concerned that
Brigitte is known as "The Sex Kitten," or
about the other provocative publicity that
would make most prospective husbands feel
ill at ease. "I know she's different from
what people think of her. She is a simple,
charming, very sincere girl who wants to
be a good wife. I know. She told me so."
She also told him she wants to quit work N
after three more pictures to have a baby,
and give up her work entirely in about
three years. "Certainly she couldn't before,"
he insisted. "She has contracts that call for
every minute of her time till then."
Brigitte wants a church wedding. Since
she was married to writer-director Roger
Vadim in a civil ceremony they were
divorced in December, 1957 she is confident
that she'll encounter no difficulties from her
church. Her 25-year-old fiance has never
been marriedj And while on the subject of
religion, Brigitte admitted, "I don't go to
serveeces as often as I should, but I theenk
I go as often as most people. And I go be
cause I want to."
She also insists on sneaking in and out
of church without being noticed.
Both brigitte and Sascha expect their
marriage to be hectic, if for no other
reason, as Sascha puts it, "than that we are
both terribly jealous."
When he was asked to come to New York
last Fall to appear on the Ed Sullivan Show,
Brigitte became so jealous that he almost
cancelled his trip.
Unlike some of Brigitte's other acquaint
ances who don't give her much credit for
intelligence, Sascha insists she has both wit
and humor. "When we" were in Venice for
the film festival," he said to illustrate his
point, "Brigitte and I were invited to a press
conference. We expected to be questioned
about ourselves. Instead, a reporter wanted
to know what she thought of De Gaulle. Do
you know what she said? 'I think he's taller
than me in every respect'"
Right now Brigitte's greatest ambition is
to make a film with an American actor, and
curiously enough it isn't Frank Sinatra, who
was supposed to play opposite her in "Paris
by Night." While claiming she thinks the
world of Sinatra as an actor, she has post
poned her film with him three times already,
and most movie people on both sides of the
Atlantic are doubtful it'll ever come off.
It's "Rook Hodson" she really wants to
work. with. As Brigitte put it, "He ees so
beeg, so beauteeful, eef only all Americains
would be like heem."
She's also fond of Gary Cooper, Clark
Gable, and half a dozen other old-timers, but
emphatically rejected the idea of meeting
America's No. 1 Rock 'n' Roll idol, Elvis
Presley, who expressed an ardent desire to
see her the moment he received his overseas
order. "He ees not refined," she said.
With Elvis stationed in Germany as an
Army truck driver and Brigitte busy in films
for years to come, she won't have to worry
about it for some time. As for retiring from
the screen, I can't help thinking of Raoul
Levy's parting remark:
"No one but Brigitte takes that seriously,
and I'm not so sure about her, either."

Two friends met on the street and ex
changed greetings. "And how," said one, "is
your wife these days?"
The other shook his head. "As a matter
of fact," he confessed, "we had words last
week, and she left me."
"Sorry" replied the other, attention
sharpening. "Er ... do you remember the
exact words?"

"I'd like to buy a snow shovel, please."
"Snow shovel, sir? Hand-operated, you
mean?"
"Why, yes. I need exercise and . . ."
"Exercise. Yes! Yes! But exercise pub
licly? Before the neighbors?"
"Well, exercise was only one aspect.
There's nostalgia, too. Remember shoveling
snow? The quiet? The unbroken purity?"
"Yes, who doesn't recall that fondly? But
a man of your obvious position shoveling?
And manually?"
"You think there'd be talk? You think a
power machine would be more . . . ah . . .
mature, successful?"
"Indeed, I do! A large machine, sir. Now
there's something the neighbors can appre
ciate. Plenty of horsepower, bright colors."
"But what about the noise?"
"It makes a beautiful noise, especially on
a quiet Winter's morn. Much like a sports
car. Your neighbors will know you own a
new power shovel!"
"But the exercise?"
"None whatsoever. Just press the Magic
Sno-Away button and off it goes."
"Well, I suppose you're right. Snow
shovels are outdated. Yes, I'll take one."
"Right you are! Now, sir, if you will step
over this way, I'll show you some exercise
machines power, of course."
