NEW “GRACES"
FOR MR. GABLE—
Because some producers insist on
making motion pictures tell the
truth ajiout life, actors are occas
ionally Called on to do things they
never did before. The significance
of this observation was disclosed
when Clark Gable discovered he had
acquired new social' graces during
the filming of “Gone with the
Wind.”
In the production of Margaret
Mitchell’s celebrated best-seller nov
el of the Civil War South, Gable
was required to enact for close-ups
many intimate accomplishments of
a dashing young blood of the ’60’s.
Gable had to learn to dance the
Virginia reel smoothly. A related
accomplishment was learning to
walk gracefully in trousers that had
a strap under the shoe sole, and
not so related was the knack of
tying Scarlett O’Hara’s bonnet
string.
The actor customarily smokes
cigarettes, but he had to change
over to stogies. An expert automo
bile driver, he had to take lessons
at the reins of a pair of carriage
