Description: Press Photo Cast of "Love Among the Ruins" with Director and Actors on ABC-TV This is an original press photo. For George Cukor & Company, "Laughter Doesn't Impede the Work" Film making is a deadly serious business, but not all the time. Witness the historic meeting of Katharine Hepburn and Sir Laurence Olivier, in their first performance together, with George Cukor directing "Love Among the Ruins," the romantic comedy by James Costigan that airs as an "ABC Theatre" presentation. Cukor told a visitor in London "I'm enjoying the making of this picture very much; I hope some of that leaks onto the screen. Laughter on the set doesn't impede the work, it just makes life interesting." (Lower left): Cukor's way with actors is probably his trademark ("he's very understanding with stars," a co-worker said, "but he's firm, big name people know they can't walk on him"), and he told his biographer "my work really begins and ends through the actors. And it seems to me, the more successfully you work through the actors, the more your own work disappears." This is Cukor's first working experience with Olivier (they've known each other since 1929) and the situation came about like this: "Kate asked me to read it," Cukor recalls," and she said.
