Film Producer Scorns To Change Novel's Title
<JAMUEL GOLDWYN denied the re- ° port that he intended to Clfaiige the title of “Wutlierius Heights” to .something of more box-office value with the following statement: “I have written to the British Bronte Society reassuring them that I have no intention of altering in any way the title of Emily Bronte’s classic. Changing the title of ‘Withering Heights’ would be as silly as it would have been to call ‘David Copperfield’ something like ‘British Boy Goes to Town.’”
