Scenes Filmed in Africa.
“GANDERS OF THE RIVER” is an entirely new type of picture, and probably the most sensational yet made by a British producing company. Adapted from the great popular novel by the late Edgar Wallace, it is a tribute to our Colonial Administration, and the white men of Africa, who, as district commisisoners, rule hundreds of miles of territory and hundreds of thousands of natives, keeping unity and order between the various tribes. “Sanders of the River” will be released by United Artists. The most magnifi-
cent scenes In this film were taken in Africa, and a camera unit covered completely unknown territory ’to shoot many of the interesting scenes. The film has a cast headed by Leslie Banks, Paul Robeson and Nina Mae McKinney. Some 20,000 natives appear in this film. ,
Marlene Dietrich’s next Paramount picture, until now known as, “Caprice Espagnol,” has undergone a title change. The new name selected is “Carnival in Spain,” and in addition to the glamorous Dietrich, the film will feature Lionel Atwill, Edward Everett Horton and Alison Skipworth. Miss Dietrich is cast as a beautiful blonde Spanish senorita.
