"One day, I hired a car and driver and set out for the beach to rest and relax. Along the way a tire went flat. It was in front of the M.G.M. studios. That was when I decided to try pictures. While the tire was being repaired, I went to the casting office and was told to report for work the next day. I got $7 for it, and I've been working at it ever since." (1932)
