A Chinaman in Kilts!
LITTLE DONALD HDIE IN •‘DULCY” (Kegent: Coming on Friday week.) Little Donald Huie, five-year-old Chinese actor appearing in ••Dulcy,” starring Ann Sothern .on coming to the Eegent Theatre on Friday week, didn’t mind wearing a sailor suit lor one scene or a cowboy outfit for another. But when it came to Scotch kilts he baulked. **l’m a boy, I’m no girl,” he protested when Director S. Sylvan Simon tried to persuade him to don the costume. It took two candy bars and an ice cream cone to finally turn the trick hut even at that Donald insisted upon hiding in his dressing room until actually needed before the camera. “Dulcy,” a fast-moving comedy of American family is the greatest story that can be told,” Pasternak, .Hungar-ian-born naturalized American, states. “There is comedy, romance, drama in •very family and if that is captured realistically on the screen it is, to me at least, potentially ideal entertainment.” Gloria’s family in “A Little Bit of Heaven” includes Hugh Herbert as her “Pop”; C. Aubrey Smith as “Grandpa”; Nan Grey as the older sister; Nana Bryant as “Mom”; Frank Jenks as “Uncle Dan.”
