it built production units around, say, a von sternberg, who did a series of movies with marlene dietrich using the same creative people on film after film. (mace neufeld) the studio system could do that. when they found talented people who could work together, they put them together in a ut and said, "give us 2 mysteries year, give us 2 musicals a year, or give us 4 westerns a year." (dramatic music playing) and i think that a style then developed for producers and directors which is difficult to duplicate today. (sounds of train)

contract director josef von sternberg discovered marlene dietrich while making "the blue angel."he studio immediately signed her up for what were to be 6 movies with von sternberg back on hollywood soil in the early 30's. dietrich, she knew exactly how she wanted to be lit. she had been lit by von sternberg and she had gotten this certain kind of look from a high light coming dow and she knew exactly where she wanted that light up there. e was the only one that ever asked me to change a light up, because she thought it would be better if i moved it that way or this way. (charles lang) von sternberg developed a kind of a lighting that was very, very interesti. and it w different from what other lightinwas. and it was important to change things. and at that time german film was reallyhe best, especially, i think, modern in that they were way ahead. so that these germans, lubitsch a von sternberg and marlene dietrich and billy wilder, fritz lang. and naturally i didn start out working with them. i just was a draftsman; was a great learng period. quite literally top executives partic

and the names on the list were like uphold, walt disney, marlene dietrich. at me, there was a long list of some of the most notable people in america in the '50s. and people did go in. gloria swanson, for instance, former silent movie star who then came back in such glory on sunset boulevard. she joined the church of scientology. rockets and made a brief appearance -- rockettes and made a brief appearance in the early days. there's other names, stephen boyd, karen black. but the big fish, the one that would be the transforming figure alluded capture. the first of the biggest fish was john travolta. and his is an exemplary study in -- story in itself. he was a young, troubled young actor who was doing his first movie in mexico. and he became friends with an actress, and she decided to give him a copy of dianetics. she was into scientology herself and she gave him some dianetics therapy, and he went. he had an out of body experience. this was made a huge impression on him. and then when he came back to los angeles he started going, taking courses at the celebr

if becky walked into marlene and said you can have your health insurance back, give me my money, that wouldn't happen. but it comes out of what we would compensate on employees. i know it is true for my company and for company i know. it's true. you would rather have them paid and not paid over time is coming out of what they were willing to pay you. that's a big part of it. parfait we all know about the tax that's gone up significantly to the taipei and, she pays it, i pay on her behalf, she pays it. right now 20 million coming up to 25% of the burden goes up to subsidizing health care. 10% going to 15% of the tax burden goes to finance medicaid. the point is that when you add all this money and it is a flood of money. why does it matter? the reason it matters is our health care system is so inefficient that the average person not only could afford their health care bill would save an enormous amount of we transferred this back to the expanded customer. we are not going to do it, but enormously changes your perspective on what is happening. now a lot of you may be thinking that well,

(jeanine basinger) marlene dietrich, greta garbo, they're like some kind of ... other.sier to scream without a straw in your mouth. (music playing) (jeanine basinger) it's a romantic kind of woman, that isn't one we connect to as easily as we do crawford wanting something for herself, and who's very realistic and down-to-earth. you don't own me -- nobody does. my life belongs to me. and you'll make one fine mess of it. it'll still belong to me. marian, you frighten me when you talk like that. if i were a man it wouldn't frighten you, you'd think it was right to go out and get anything. use anything i had to get it. why should men be so different? all they've got is their brains they're not afraid to use them. neither am i. the key to the star image is that it is only an image, and yet we know there is a real person and that knowledge that we have that there is a real person makes us believe in the image. you see, pictures have given me all the education i ever had, since i never went beyond the fifth grade. no formal education whatsoever. i used to have to read scripts

and training programs like the nanny training program like marlene talked about in the video are nowcaled and replicated around the country as well as elder care training programs. and so more and more people are starting to understand that this is skilled work, and this is dignifies work, and it should be really values -- valued and seen as such. >> judy is training something that philanthropists could get involved in, and what would you look for? >> i think part of that challenge within philanthropy and within the work force development system is a deeper understanding of what's actually happened in the work force. so there is such a draw, i think, among philanthropists and also the work force development system, the work force investment boards to think that where we really need to invest now is in helping people get the training they need for higher-wage jobs which -- and jobs with career ladders which would be wonderful. but as maureen said, these are not the jobs, these are not the sectors that are growing in our country right now. so part of the work in philanthropy, i think,
