Comedy Stars
Take Beating In >
Capitol Film
The picture’s five stars literally
knocked themselves out making
“Curtain Call at Cactus Creek,”
Universal-International’s Techni
color western comedy opening to
night at the Capitol Theatre with
Donald O'Connor, Gale Storm,
Walter Brennan, Vincent Price and
Eve Arden.
The heavy roller of a stage cur
tain beaned O'Connor as he was
whirling through a dizzy dance rou
tine.
Miss Storm rehearsed the dance
duct she does with O’Connor to
the point of exhaustion and took
to her bed for two days.
Brennan knocked himself silly
when his six-shooter stuck in its
holster. He gave it a savage yank
and the butt connected with his
jaw.
Price wras knocked t horizontal
when a five-pound rooster, dropped
from 30 feet above in the sound
stage rafters, landed squarely on
his head.
Eive Arden ran low on blood pres
sure pfter a week’s strenuous dance
rehearsal and was bedded by ner
vous exhaustion.
