Hollywood Personalities and New Films

HOLLYWOOD — Norman
Jewison who has guided such
films as "Fiddler on the
Roof" and "Jesus Christ
Superstar," now is at the
helm of "Rollerball," a
science-fiction a d v e n t u r e
yarn dealing with a war-less
society of the 21st century
when people are being exter-
minated in a more sportlike
fashion — through a cunning-
ly devised,. lethal ballpark
competition. In a world con-
trolled by giant monopolistic
powers, the futuristic game
supposedly replaces football
as the number one spectator
event.
Producer-director Jewison
picked up the story, "Roller-
ball Murders," a nightmar-
ish dream of things to come,
written 'by William Harrison,
for his new multi-million dol-
lar epic to be relased by Un-
ited -Artists, _with Harrison
developing his own screen-
play.
"Rollerball" went before
the cameras in Munich, Aug.
1 at the very site of the
Olympic Games where the
Israeli athletes were slaugh-
tered two years ago by Arab
terrorists. The unit moves
on for additional exteriors
to London, after photography
has been completed in Ger-
many—sometime in October,
The all-powerful head of
a new world society is being
portrayed by John House-
man, the Romanian-born•dis-
tinguished showman, produc-
er of Orson Welles' Mercury
Theater and many memor-
able films who, at . the age
of 71, made his bow as an
actor and won an Academy
Award in "Paper Chase"
this ' year.
Sir. Ralph Richardson ap-
pears as the sinister com-
puter manager who feeds his
boss all 'pertinent informa-
tion — something we heard
elsewhere only - recently.
James Caan represents "Mr.
Average Citizen" who sur-
vives the brutal and terrify-
ing assault organized by the
State. Others in the cast are
'Moses Gunn and Swedish ac-
tress Maud Adams.

Al Rosen, the le•gendary
"one-man" talent agency of
yesteryear, is at 78 still vital
and vigorous. A stout, moon-
faced individual, he came to
my office at the Goldwyn
Studios, which happened to
be a few doors down from
his own, to tell me that his
memoirs of Hollywood are
being published with special
emphasis on the career of
Judy Garland, a young lady
he discovered as one of the
"Gumm-sisters" trio when
she was 12, chubby and not
at all pretty, but who had a
beautiful voice and sparkling
personality.

Rosen had a hunch when
he took Judy under his wing,
against the vigorous objec-
tions of her own mother, and
trained her singing voice (to
give her "heart" as he says).
As a Hollywood cantor he
taught her Hebrew chants,
among them the "Kol Nidre"
prayer. He had a hunch when
he brought Judy to the atten-
tion of the late Louis B. May-
er at Metro, though the pro-
duction head then was plug-
ging Deanna Durbin who was
under contract. The career

of Judy Garland became
movie history.
A few years ago, Rosen be-
sieged MGM to make a cav-
alcade of excerpts from the
memorable musicals of the
past. He now is planning to
set up, on his own, the true
life story of Judy Garland, a
life which was not all roses,
with scenes from her great
films over a period of almost
thirty years.

Jack Benny is returning to
the screen in MGM's forth-
coming filmization of Neil
Simon's comedy, "The Sun-
shine Boys," a take-off on
the vaudevillians Smith and
Dale, essaying the part of
the mild-mannered Al Lewis
who gives the finger to the
cantankerous Willie Clark al-
ias Jack Albertson. The lat-
ter told this columnist re-
cently that his contract with
stage producers Emanuel Az-
enberg and Eugene V. Wolsk
stipulated he automatically
repeat the character on the
screen whenever and where-
ever a film is contemplated.
But Albertson now is in the
TV series "Chico and the
Man" and both Milton Berle
and Phil Silvers are being

considered for the meaty part
of the top banana Willie
Clark. Screen-testing for the
featured role of Ben Silver-
man (the agent-nephew) are
both David Steinberg and
Steve Lawrence.

Steve Lawrence and Edyie
Gorme, at the Caesars Pal-
ace in Las Vegas, participat-
ed in the tribute to George
Gershwin's 75th birthday,
with a musical medley from
the late composer's work, in-
cluding songs from his folk
opera, "Porgy and Bess."
Jerry Lewis was at the
Sahara in Las Vegas, proving
that a comedian can be witty
and entertaining without be-
coming vulgar. The seasoned
performer, who contributes a
great deal to humanitarian
causes, remained a most ef-
fective .nightclub headliner.
Frederic Apcar, at the
Dunes Hotel, inserted a deep-
ly moving sequence into his
Las Vegas "Casino de Paris"
spectacle, dealing with the
cultural achievements of the
State of Israel during the
first 25 years of indepen-
dence; Hebrew songs and
Hasidic dances were deliv-
ered with -remarkable dignity.
