When he wanted to join the Los Angeles Country Club and was told by a board member that they didn't accept actors, his response was, “Hell, I'm no actor and I've got 28 pictures and a scrapbook of reviews to prove it. Darryl F Zanuck was warning producers to stay in line :: If you're not careful, I'll give you Mature for your next picture'."
