Gable, Clark: Rosalind Russell about the Star’s Qualities

I met him on the set of China Seas, our first picture together, and he made a comment about feeling silly about having to be made up. He didn’t like makeup and wouldn’t let it be put on him.

He had the attitude that it was not natural–Rosalind Russell
