BY THE WAY, the madam

won an Oscar playing a prosti-
tute ln "Elmer Gantry." “I sup-
pose," Shirley laughed, "you

I asked Stewart how he, n
veteran of westerns (17 or id,
he believes), liked working with
Gene Kelly, who was directing
Ills ilrst western
"Gene and I were both under
contract to MOM for many,
many years, during the 'golden
era' of motion pictures," he re-
called "And Hank Fonda and 1
have been friends for to jc.irs.
So It was like 'old home week."

“I'VE been close to Gene's
career since he started In Hol-
lywood over 27 years ego. I've
watched a dedicated man work
at his craft with all the exper-
tise of a perfectionist. That's
what Gene la. And he gets what

•'Gene docs his homework' as
a director, comes prepared and
is ln complete command. He
knows what he wants from his
people and gets it—whether It's
a musical like 'Hello Dolly, or
a western.
“Of course, I think a couple
of 'old linier.'i' like Hank and
myself can be a great help to
a director, not only Kelly, but
any director Through V « years
we acquire and offer a certain
amount of know-how to our
profession and the least amount
of resistance to direction.
"On the other aide of the coin.
Gene has been a star tor 27
years and displays a tremendous
amount of understanding and
compassion for his sc tors,
know Gene Is a goo. I director,
he's a GREAT director. I'd lore
to do more pictures with him,
any time- -any kind.”

__and acta like he’s a non-enU-

to talk to me." he always kids
us when we approach him on
films he's directing. "Talk to
the important people-the ac-
tom.*' But we pressed on to find
out his impressions about di-
recting his first western

"WHAT'S to do with a cou-
