-WHAT WOMEN WANT TO KNOW" Flit I Froi-t, reveoTrg 37-pogn book e. plo-'et Scwj ID cover coif 10 Depl. 6, James Stewart escorts Rosemary Forsyth to a jUm wedding. Hollywood's $9 Million Regal Rosemary Forsyth is determined to be a star and her studio is gambling a fortune that moviegoers will make her one By PEER J. OPPENHE1MER Rosemary and Ckarlton Heston -perform in "The War Lord." 12 Family Weekly, July 18,1965 HERE ARE FEWER than 10 female movie stars who mean anything to the box office--such actresses as Julie Andrews, Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Doris Day.

Their salary demands usually start at $1,000,000 a movie plus 10 percent of the gross. Since these figures leave moat producers gasping, Hollywood studios are once again gambling on young perform- and trying to build up star rosters. The biggest gamble so far is Universal Pictures' bet on beautiful, Canadian-born Rosemary Forsyth. Universal has just starred this pretty unknown in two still-unreleased multimillion-dollar productions--a $4,000,000 Civil War epic titled "Shenandoah," with Jimmy Stewart, and Cnarl- ton Heston's "The War Lord," budgeted at $5,000,000. The intelligence, beauty, and regal bearing of 21-year- old Rosemary Forsyth make her seem more like European royalty than a Hollywood starlet, and this may be why Universal is betting on her.

Says Andrew McLaglen.who directed her first film: "People could be right when they talk about her being 'another Bergman' or 'another Perhaps someday they'll be saying 'another When I met her at the Beverly Hills Hotel recently, I was struck first by her austere beauty. Tall and slim, she wore a plain corduroy suit, no make-up, and her long hair was hanging down to her shoulders. She quietly told me about her background. Born in Montreal, Canada, she was two months old when her parents separated. At five.

Rosemary's mother moved her to New York, where the mother became a model. "I was always interested in acting," Rosemary told me. "I 'took drama classes in high school and college." In her teens, she turned to modeling, and for a while it was difficult to turn on a tv set without finding Rosemary shampooing, brushing her teeth, or puffing on a cigarette. It was a photograph in a national magazine that caught the eyes of Universal executives and led to a screen test. Impressed by the test, the studio took an option on her.

This provided Rosemary with enough money to attend the Wynn Handman Drama School in New York. On Rosemary's insistence, the contract was kept a secret till she was given her first part. "I didn't want anyone to know because I was afraid it would never work out." Meanwhile, Rosemary gained acting experience by appearing on tv and in summer stock with Art Carney. Though born in Montreal and working in Hollywood, Rosemary considers herself a typical New Yorker--and intends to remain one. "I like the independence and privacy you can get only in a cosmopolitan city like New York," she told me.

Rosemary first showed her independence when she moved into her own apartment after she finished high school. "Mother was in hysterics when' I told her," she remembers. "She couldn't stop crying for four days." She further proved her financial independence by refusing to buy anything on credit. What about a husband? Children? "I don't want to get married. It wouldn't be fair to the man," she insists.

Her ambition is to become a good actress, and when Rosemary says it, it sounds neither trite nor unconvincing. "More than being a star or big personality, I want to develop myself as an actress," she insists. "I will do any and all parts, from the sweet young thing to a barmaid." Having seen her on the screen and met her in person, I would give odds that Rosemary has a bright future..
