“SHE’S SO BEAUTIFUL"
On the set of “Modern Cinderella** whenever Irene Dunne brings out the make-up box to repair her face. Director John Stahl breaks in a speech, “You’re beautiful, so beautiful. Irene,” he tells the star earnestly. “No one could be as lovely as you. If you were any lovelier I just couldn’t work with you. You’re simply the most of everything.” There are those on the set who, though they don’t doubt the sincerity, still suspect a motive. For every time the star sits down to her make-up box, she becomes absorbed ill studying her reflection. While time passes, production costs mount, and studio executives have figured it cost! several hundred dollars every time Mist Dunne powders her nose.
