hwp The Kid Stays In The Picture Script
The Los Angeles Times once said...
... that never in the history of Hollywood has
such glamour and talent sat under one tree.
Dr. Kissinger is here and
theres no accident.
Theres more oil on Bob Evans...
Take him home. Take him home!
Just get him the hell out of here!
These past years as chief of
production at Paramount Pictures...
... Ive been lucky, or fortunate enough to
be involved with such unique pictures...
... as Rosemarys Baby, True Grit,
Love Story, The Godfather...
How did you get discovered
for the movies?
Well, I got discovered by jumping
into a swimming pool.
But I was an actor for many years
as a kid before that.
I was at the Beverly Hills Hotel pool.
I was a businessman at the time.
- What was your business?
- I was partners in Evan Picone.
We made womens pants.
In other words, I was in womens pants.
We actually started the fad
of women wearing slacks.
Ill never forget it, because...
It was the fall of .
I flew out to Los Angeles
to set up Evan Picone boutiques.
One afternoon, I decided
to play hooky...
...sit by the pool and get some
sun at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
Suddenly a woman approached. "Excuse
me, young man, are you an actor?"
Yeah, I was, a long time ago.
It was Norma Shearer.
Norma Shearer, at the time,
was one of the few remaining icons...
...of Hollywood aristocracy.
A petite blond in a striped, short robe.
"Pardon me for being curious, young man,
but why are you always on the phone?"
Gotta pay my bills.
"Youre not a bookmaker, are you?"
No, Im not a bookmaker.
Then she changed the
entire course of my life.
"Would you like to play my deceased
husband, Irving Thalberg, in a film?"
I looked at her. Looked at her again. I
didnt know what she was talking about.
"Theyre making a film at Universal
called Man of a Thousand Faces.
My friend Jimmy Cagney
is playing Lon Chaney.
Irving discovered him and made
him the biggest star in silent film.
He was only at the time. He was
even too young to sign the checks.
But not too young to run a studio."
Im thinking to myself, wow,
this cant be happening to me.
Miss Shearer, it would be
an honor. Why not?
Cagney is the one guy
Ive always wanted to meet.
Two hours later, Im on a
sound stage at Universal.
Here I am, like out of a dream,
Im testing opposite Jimmy Cagney.
Mind if I come in a minute?
I know I dont look dressed for the barricades,
but Ive come from a revolution.
The premiere of The Jazz Singer. Lon,
you shouldve seen that audience.
When Jolsons voice came
from the screen...
...I could hear the bells tolling
for silent pictures.
You havent heard a word I said.
- Im sorry, Irving. What were you saying?
- Nothing much.
Just trying to tell you
about a modern miracle.
Pictures that not only move,
Lon, but they speak.
Oh, yeah, sure. Talking pictures.
Its the horse and the automobile
all over again. No use fighting it.
When it was over, Cagney gave me a
quick look, "You did good, kid."
Forty-eight hours later, I made every
newspaper around the country.
"Big splash: New York businessman dives
into pool and comes out movie star."
Was I lucky? I think so.
If I had stayed just an actor, Norma
never wouldve given me a second look.
What caught her eye was a young
go-getter, sure about himself. Persuasive.
A subliminal reminder of the man who
was once her mentor and her husband.
Its the old story, though.
Luck doesnt happen by mistake.
Rather, luck is when opportunity
meets preparation.
As soon as the picture wrapped,
I flew back to the Big Apple.
Evan Picone was on fire...
...the showroom packed with them leggy
ladies prancing in their patrician pants.
It was turn-on plus. My brother Charles had
built the top fashion company of its time.
Me? I was lucky to be part of it...
...never having a second thought
about returning to La La Land.
Why should I?
In New York, I was a celebrity.
From debutante, to starlet, to model.
There I was on their most-wanted list.
Was I enjoying it? You bet your ass I was.
One night, my brother and I took
a few femme fatales to El Morocco.
Me? I didnt feel like conversation,
so I hit the dance floor.
Well, that night someone had eyes
for me, and it wasnt her.
It was Darryl Zanuck, head
honcho of th Century Fox.
He had no idea who I was.
But just looking at me, he thought:
That kids right to play the
matador opposite Ava Gardner.
After years and years of knocking
on doors, being turned down...
...here I am, discovered to star
in two pictures within six months.
Thats what you call incident, and thats
whats also known as sense of discovery.
Thank God, I was the one discovered.
I was sent down to Mexico
to study to be a bullfighter.
Mind you, I have never once
seen a bull in my life.
I worked my ass off for three months.
Wearing a rubber girdle each day, so Id
lose weight around my midsection.
There was one big problem.
No one wanted me in the picture.
Ernest Hemingway was furious theyd
pick a guy out of a nightclub...
...to play Pedro Romer
