„He could tell to the dime how much a man earned“

The rugged old movie democracy is fading and Hollywood
is putting on the Pekingese – But the movie
world is safe for democracy as long as Bull Montana
wears his brown derby

GONE are the days... la-da-da-da da-da-da!“ (...)
„Hollywood as a movie colony no longer exists.
All the real aristocracy lives in Beverly Hills.“ (...)
„With an Alpine guide you may even penetrate the hill
fastnesses and gaze through the gates of Corinne
Griffith‘s palatial estate, Mack Sennett‘s, Charlie Chaplin‘s,
Marion Davies‘ and the Fairbanks‘.“ (...)
„The caste system of India is lax compared with that
of Hollywood. Charlie Chaplin, who at times inclines
toward society bolshevism, once remarked that he could
tell to the dime how much a man earned by the place
he occupied at a Hollywood party.
He referred particularly to those bootlicking banquets
in honor of star or producer, at which upon arrival
you are presented with a stick of incense and a glass
for toasting. After about six toasts to the glory
of the feted nabob a fellow is liable to go wild and start
drinking to himself until he feels as good as the god,
if not better.“
