Twelvetrees is described as a 'world-star' despite the compared status of the likes of Clark Gable, and it is even suggested that her involvement with Cinesound may provide her with an international standing. Her salary is considered in allignment with Hollywood studio incmes, if not overly generous, which is a possibly nieve assumption on behalf of the publication.
Interestingly, while Twelvetrees is described as a capable, assertive and appealing woman, Nellie Barnes' compliments are reduced to her cinematic capabilities only.
