"Whenever Virginia Valli wants to get mad in scenes for <em>In Every Woman´s Life</em>, she has her violinist, Art Jell, play solos for her. This doesn´t mean that he is a poor musician, in fact he is considered one of the best among the studio musicians. Rasping sounds on the violin will set Virginia in a state of hysterics in short order. Irving Cummings is here seen directing Miss Valli in a mad scene for the picture."
