AS DONE IN THE STATES
A Hollywood cinema’s advertising of ‘ Fire Over England ’ is an amusing sidelight on the building up of British stars —and the selling of British films in America. The signs read: Laurence (‘Wuthering Heights ’) Oliver, Raymond Lincoln’) Massey, and Vivien (‘ Scarlett ’) Leigh in ‘ Fire Over England.’ It might have included Flora (‘ Wuthering Heights ’) Robson. Quite a number of old 1 British films may yet get a showing in the same way. America may be interested in ‘ Men of To-morrow,’ starring Merle Oberon and Robert (‘ Citadel ’) Donat.
