Girl’s Brilliant Prospects
BUT NOT GOOD NAME. Nova Pilbeam, 14-year-old British star, will know soon whether the perfect film name has been found for her. The unsophisticated charm of her performance in “Little Friend,” at the New Gallery Cinema, London, has assured her for a brilliant future. All film-goers in London are talking about her; Hollywood is watching her. Now Gaumont-British, her sponsor, seeks for her the screen name that will express her remarkable personality with the maximum amount of box-office appeal. Her own name, it thinks, lacks just the quality that is so vital. _ The company has offered a prize of £l5O to the London patron who suggests the best name, and already many thousands of suggestions have been received.
