Byrd Antarctic Film Preview Draws Noted Guests At Paramount
Paramount exposes "With Byrd at the South Pole" to National Geographic Society officials in Washington with Hoover Akerson and Floyd Gibbons among the audience. The reduced feature tells the Byrd expedition’s hardship and triumph with a narration and music. Across the ocean in Paris, Maurice Chevalier broadcast the Big Pond benefit to flood victims, while Colbert leads dual-language The Big Pond. Talking pictures demand exact dialogue with no prompters, Monta Bell notes, and only ten scenes required reshoots in Young Man of Manhattan. Unsolicited scripts drop 80 percent as talks rise, says Frank Tuttle on True to the Navy.
