Charles Chaplin, Paulette Goddard, Jean Cocteau

Charlie Chaplin and Paulette Goddard, together

with Paulette‘s mother, Mrs. Alta Goddard, returned from

a prolonged jaunt through the Orient yesterday

on the Dollar liner President Coolidge. Out of his Oriental

excursion he gathered a background for his new

film, a story of adventure and romance, which he will direct

and in which Miss Goddard will be starred. On the

same ship, and apparently a film buddy with Chaplin was Jean

Cocteau, French poet, playwright, novelist, and leading

figure in every new artistic movement that has originated in Paris

for the last twenty years. –  San Francisco, June 6, 1936,

FILM PAIR REFUSE TALK

OF MARRIAGE REPORT

      If, as has long been rumored, Charlie Chaplin and his

newest leading lady, Paulette Goddard, are married, neither is yet prepared to talk about it.

      Said Charlie Chaplin: ,I never discuss the reports

of my marriage. Ask Miss Goddard.‘

      Said Miss Goddard: ,I never discuss my personal affairs

in public.‘

      The pair, together with Paulette‘s mother, Mrs. Alta

Goddard, returned from a prolonged jaunt through

the Orient yesterday on the Dollar liner President Coolidge,

affably posed for pictures, affably talked of this,

that and the other, but just as affably refused to talk about

themselves.

      WELL TANNED.

      Chaplin, well tanned and his white hair closely trimmed,

declared that he has written 10,000 words of a new

adventure-romance scenario, and that it will go into production

shortly with Miss Goddard in the lead, himself appearing

only behind the directorial megaphone. Soon thereafter he may

make another picture starring himself, though whether

he will abandon his famed silent tramp role he doesn‘t know.

He doubts it.

      On the same ship, and apparently a firm buddy with

Chaplin, was Jean Cocteau, French poet, playwright,

novelist, and a leading figure in every new artistic movement

that has originated in Paris for the last 25 years. At the

moment, however, Cocteau is more of a betting man than

anything else.

      TO WRITE ARTICLES.

      In commemoration of a Jules Verne anniversary,

Cocteau three months ago bet a Paris newspaper

he could emulate Phineas Fogg and go around the world

in 80 days, traveling only by ship and train. He is

63 days out of Paris at the moment, expects to win easily.

If he wins, he writes 20 articles for the paper for

what he terms ,beaucoup de francs;‘ if he loses, he writes

them gratis.“
