    [to Preysing, after he tries to get 'familiar' with her by asking her to call him by his first name]

     

    Flaemmchen: You know I always say that nothing should be left hanging over. And names are like that. Suppose I met you next year and said, 'How do you do Mr. Preysing?' And you said, 'That's the young lady who was my secretary in Manchester.' That's all quite propper. But supposing I saw you and yelled 'Hi baby. Remember Manchester.'

     

    [he laughs]

     

    Flaemmchen: Yeah, and you were with your wife. How would you like that?

  6. Thanks but I bought the bio " Not the Girl Next Door: Joan Crawford" the day it hit the store shelves!! Awsome book!

     

    Right now I'm reading: "The Leading Men of MGM" by Jane Ellen Wayne! Great book too!

    Interesting tid bits about the likes of Clark Gable, John Gilbert, Elvis Presley, Mickey Rooney, Frank Sinatra, Spencer Tracy!

     

    Also bought (Which is my next read) ..The Golden Girls of MGM: Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford, Lana Turner, Judy Garland, Ava Gardner, Grace Kelly and Others!

    PER: JC Best Of Everything!

     

    Grand Hotel. MGM, 1932. Directed by Edmund Goulding, 115 minutes.

     

    The play "Grand Hote l", based on the German novel Menschen im Hotel, premiered on Broadway on November 30, 1931, and ran for 257 performances. MGM contributed $15,000 to the show in exchange for the film rights.) Joan plays stenographer "Flaemmchen" in an all-star cast also featuring Greta Garbo, John Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore, Wallace Beery. Critical and popular consensus is that "Joan Crawford" more than held her own amid the heavyweights.

     

    If "Our Dancing Daughters" in '28 made her a star, this one made her a... "SUPERSTAR!"

     

    This film won Best Picture for 1932, Joan's only appearance in a movie that won the biggie.

     

    Says Joan in CWJC: ... my high point up 'til then. Little Joan was called upon to match Garbo, Wallace Beery, and the Barrymores and she came off smelling like a rose. I adored that film then and I do now. Goulding had a first-rate script and he made the most of every scene, and Adrian dressed both Garbo and me exquisitely without putting us out of character. God, what a picture!

  8. Gloria Swanson was an Academy Award-nominated, Golden Globe-winning American Hollywood actress. She was prolific during the silent film era, but her career declined with the advent of "talkies". She is now best known for her comeback role in the film "Sunset Boulevard" (1950), in which?mirroring her own life?she portrayed a former silent movie star largely forgotten by audiences of the day.
