DECISION ON ‘ULYSSES’
(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter— Copyright) CANNES, May 3. The film director, Mr Joseph Strick, yesterday withdrew his controversial film “Ulysses” from the Cannes festival, claiming that he had been humiliated. Mr Strick claims that the festival director, Mr Robert Favre Lebret, butchered the film in censoring some 20 o£ its French subtitles at a public showing last week. He said in a cable sent to festival authorities: “Our film has been mutilated. We have been lied to, humiliated and denied acces# to just competition. We art withdrawing.”
