Hollywood Box Office Leads As The War Ends In Sight
Hollywood faces a boom with more new pictures in production than in three years and rising box office. London theaters reopen while English French and German studios mostly halt, leaving Hollywood with a near monopoly though some costly films are shelved and budgets trimmed. Executives issue bold statements while quietly cutting many low paid white collar staff. A Destry Rides Again set scene shows Marlene Dietrich in a breezy, stagey mood as Dietrich chats with cast rather than retreating to her dressing room. Martha Raye tops the Mays Office gossip as Warners previews The Life of Edgar Allan Poe and mentions The Farmer's Daughter amid studio talk.
