Gossip Friday: What a Smash

From February 1937:

When they were making “Love on the Run,” Mr. Clark Gable also had lines to learn, walked around the set uneasily, rumpling his hair and glaring at Miss Crawford, who was innocently playing her operas. He suddenly walked over to her, picked up her pile of records, flung them on the floor, smashed them to flinders and said: “There! How do you think anybody can learn lines with all that racket!” He then quietly walked away and Miss Crawford either wept or looked about to. It was one of Gable’s japeries. He had bought a lot of dime records to smash.
