"SIXTY GLORIOUS YEARS"
(By Air Mail, from "The Post's" London Representative.)
LONDON, August 15.
After Balmoral, Windsor, and Buckingham Palace comes Osborne. Having been granted special permission to film the final scenes for "Sixty Glorious Years," in technicolour, at Osborne, Isle of Wight, where Queen Victoria resided for so many years with Princess Beatrice, Miss Anna Neagle and other, actors and technicians have gone to the island. It is the first time that such facilities have been granted.
Government House, Wellington, now merged into Parliament Buildings, was very much like Osborne: indeed, its plans were modelled on what then was a Royal residence. For years past it has been used for a naval college. In Whippingham Church will be found much of historic interest attaching to Osborne. Carisbrook Castle will doubtless be introduced into the coming film. "Sixty Glorious Years" will certainly be unique in the way of true settings.
