Carl Rollyson Quote
Under contract to Sam Goldwyn for a decade beginning in 1935, he nevertheless saw himself as independent—in part because so many studios used him, and he was not part of the star machine If you’re not the star, you don’t get the blame if it’s a lousy picture, he pointed out. They always blame the star. They say, ‘But that old man was great!’ That’s how I kept going. He was quite content to walk beside his friend Lewis Stone, who would get the attention of autograph hunters, while an amused Brennan remained undisturbed by movie fans.
