 I … (not, see) Johnson for several months when
yesterday he … (turn) up looking as if he … (spend) a
holiday on a sunny South Sea island. He … (wear) a ny-
lon shirt, a day tie, cream-coloured trousers and a
Panama hat. «Where on earth … (you, get) those
clothes and what… (you, do) since we last saw you?» I
asked. «I … (earn) a lot of money,» he answered.
«Good,» I said, «but that … (not, explain) the clothes.
You … (always, love) bright colours, I … (know), but…
(you, need) to dress up in such vivid ones?» «It is really
unnecessary now but until yesterday it … (be) neces-
sary,» he said. «You see, I… (get) a job with a film com-
pany and they … (make) a film about tropical life when
I … (join) them. One of the chief actors … (fall) ill and
as I … (look) like him, I took his place. After I … (re-
hearse) a few times, I … (imitate) his gestures very
well. In fact, while I … (act) several of his friends …
(mistake) me for him and it was some time before the
Producer … (convince) them that I was not the famous
actor himself.» «But … (you, ever, act) before?» I
asked. «I… (act) in some plays produced by an amateur
dramatic society, and when I… (have) to act before the
camera I found it easier than I … (find) acting on the
stage. As a matter of fact, when I was twenty, I …
(think) of going on the stage, but a long illness … (put)
that idea out of my head and I was obliged to take up an
outdoor life for a time.
