The actress wrote the script over a two-year period, then announced she intended to direct the film herself. "It's always a problem to find money to make a film, especially with a first-time director," she admitted. She finally found a backer in the third television channel of France. She completed "Lumiere" in 40 days and met her budget of $550,000.

The actresses in her film range from a beginner to a mature star, and she chose to play the latter "Why not I'm 48. "It is the story of friendships," said Miss Moreau. "In the end one of the four dies, and that unifies everything. The others realize that life goes on. Everyone is alone, but you're not alone if you're not abandoned." Miss Moreau admitted that she had many sleepless nights, especially before the start of filming.

But she never doubted that she could meet the challenge. After all, she has been in films 28 years and has been directed by such masters as Truffaut Et Orson Wells Trial," "Chimes at Michelangelo Antonioni Elia Kazan Last Luis Bunuel of a Louis Malle "Viva Maria "I have always worked intimately with directors," she said. "I'm on the set all the time, always curious and concerned. Yes, there were many times during the filming of 'Lumiere' when I felt anxieties and fears, but I also had moments' of exhilaration and excitement." She dismissed the suggestion that male film workers might resist a female boss "I think men are ready to cooperate and collaborate with anyone who has talent." She has already started on two more script ideas that she hopes to direct. By BOB THOMAS Associated Press Writer LOS ANGELES (AP) While women film directors still struggle for opportunities in America, their European counterparts are succeeding.

The latest addition to the ranks: French star Jeanne Moreau. Joining Lina Wertmuller, Mai Zetterling and other Europeans, Miss Moreau has completed her first film as director, "Lumiere." She was here to show it to potential distributors and also to participate in a delegation of French film makers to the United States. The visitors were led by Pierre Viot, director of the Centre National du Cinema, and were joined by directors Costa Gavras, Francois Truffaut and Louis Malle. "Our purpose," said Miss Moreau between a round of parties and screenings, "is to establish a general relationship on a personal basis between the French and the U.S. industries.

The life of the French film depends on distribution throughout the world, and we want to make the American industry aware of what we are doing in France. "The French film peaked about 15 years ago with the New Wave. Unfortunately, many of the theaters that showed foreign films in this country have converted to porn. That makes it harder to get bookings. "Also, there has been a weakness in French films.

They have become too national. They have been successful in Frenchspeaking countries, but they are impossible to import." Miss Moreau herself may help change that. Her "Lumiere" is the story of four actresses, their relationships to each other and the world around them. The title, meaning "light," was chosen "because of what happens when light goes on the stage, also because light is the opposite of obscurity, which actors must combat."

He's been a song-and-dance man all his life, and his father was a song-and-dance man before him. And Bobby's done all right, in a long and honorable career. But now he's doing something else and the reason is the need in all of us for some security. "I've been a song-and-dance man since I was 15," Bobby says. "I never had a lesson in my life-I just picked it up as I went along.

And I've been working pretty steadily for a long time. "But I have no security to show for it. That's the trouble with this business. That's one reason why I hope the new show goes. I want security." The new show is NBC's brand-new daytime comedy-variety program, The Fun Factory, which Bobby hosts.

He says it is a game show with overtones of variety. "The questions fur the contestants," he says, "grow out of the sketches and musical numbers." The Fun Factory has had a curious, strike-crossed history. It was originally scheduled to premiere last April, then twice in May. All three times it was postHincd by the devastating strike by broadcast employes against NBC. "It's been very frustrating for me," Van says.

"I've had to turn down a lot of big money offers because of it. One of them was to go on tour with the musical, 'George But he stuck it out, waited for the strike to be settled. One reason was that he felt the show game him that long-awaited chance for security at the right time-he and Ins wife, actress-dancer Elaine Joyce--are just about to have their first child. Another reason is that the show was tailored expressly fur him. That's the reverse of the usula procedure.

Ordinarily, a show is created and then they go shopping for a host but this time they had the host and built the show to fit his talents. Bobby Van's father was an old-time vaudeville song-and-dance man, so the whole procedure came naturally to the young man.

That made it tough on me as a boy, because I used the real family name-Stein-when I went to school.

All the teachers were confused about a kid named Stein whose father was named King. I was confused, too. "So, when I turned professional, I had to find a name. There were too many people named King around and I didn't think Stein had glamor, so I picked Van. But I've legalized it, so my children won't have the problems I had." This, of course, will be Van's first extended exposure on television.

As noted, he likes the prospect of a long and steady engagement, for the security it will produce, but he isn't too sure how well he'll enjoy the work. "I like working, wherever and whenever," he says, "and I really don't care where or what it is. But I do think I prefer the stage because the reaction of the audience is more immediate," He does think The Fun Factory will be fun for him as well as the audience because there will be live people for him to work to. It's movies, with their lack of live audience, he doesn't particularly care for. BURT REYNOLDS uOATOR" iSmr Qualify Jfwelern Sine?
