PROGRESS OF CINEMA.
IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT. (Per Press Association). AUCKLAND, March 22. Among the passengers on the Monterey are Mr Harold M. Harwood, a playwright, and his wife, who is the author, F. Tennyson Jesse. Mr Harwood remarked that 75 per cent of the people in London to-day had been brought up on the cinema and did not go to the legitimate theatre. Audiences at the latter were more than middle-aged. Referring to Hollywood Mr Harwood said, it was on the cards that a new technicolour process which had been perfected might revolutionise the film industry. Black and white would then be a thing of the past. There was also the threat of television to contend with.
