DESTRY
Marlene Dietrich:
During the course of the summer of 1939, I received a call
from the Hollywood producer Joe Pasternak. 'In spite of everything,
I'm taking the risk of making a film with you,' he said. 'Jimmy
Stewart has already agreed, and I would like to have you as
his co-star in the western, DESTRY RIDES AGAIN.'
l answered, 'Not for anything in the world.' But Josef von
Sternberg advised me to accept the offer. So I left Antibes
and set out for Hollywood.
It was fun to make the film, and we were all delighted with
its great success. Joe Pasternak was especially happy, since
he had challenged the film industry and saw that his efforts
had been rewarded.
