...well known, when it comes to unity, the Arabs are long on words and short on deeds. Hardly had Egypt's leader spoken than Tunisia's President Habib Bourguiba made it clear that his country would not go along with extreme measures against the West Germans. And Morocco's King Hassan II, in Cairo for a state visit, did not even mention the German problem in his speech at an official dinner. Fact was, all the Arab states were probably willing to withdraw their ambassadors from Bonn, but many were reluctant to go much farther. Only...
...that produced The Blue Angel, Shanghai Express and The Devil Is a Woman is pitiably bitter. While other stars complained of Sternberg's cruel direction, Marlene loyally praised the very hardships he put her through, as when he made her walk barefoot across the blazing desert while filming Morocco with Gary Cooper. But to Sternberg this was no more than a deliberate plot designed by Dietrich to gain public admiration for herself and to shower abuse on him.

Drums for Tables. John Mills plans to base himself permanently in Manhattan, leaving his even bigger son Robert, 6 ft. 8 in., to run the London end of things.

Sequined, sheathed and chinchillaed, they made up such a jam of international jetters that there was scarcely room for another square-cut diamond. There wasn't room, in fact, for Princess Lee Radziwill to get in the door; the bigger Begum Aga Khan managed...
...management's name is John Mills, and he is big: 6 ft. 4 in. and 250 Ibs. He is also big in the nightclub business, being proprietor of London's most successful version of the El Morocco formula: Les Ambassadeurs, with its subsidiary discothèque called The Garrison and its gambling room called Le Cercle. Almost everyone Mills asked advised him not to buy Morocco, which had been falling off since John Perona died and his son Edwin moved the whole place two blocks farther east. And the rise of discothèques such as Le Club...
