Helen Hayes: Way back in the mid-30s and early 40s, my husband Charles MacArthur and Ben Hecht wrote a screenplay for Wuthering Heights. I was staying in California at the time. One day, Charles came back from a tennis game very excited. "I have just seen the perfect Heathcliff, a brooding young man who leans against the wall of a tennis court at the club, waiting for someone to come along who wants a game. He has a startling, dangerous, dark beauty. Come down and see him, Helen, and tell me I am right." We repaired to the Beverly Hills tennis club, and there I saw Laurence Olivier. I told my husband who he was and his history, and he immediately approached him and made a date to take him to see the producer of the film, Samuel Goldwyn. From there on, it's history.History indeed! Fantastic anecdote.
