The Rajah of Sarawak
AN American company is to make a film based on the life iof Sir Joseph Brooke, the White Rajah, of Sarawak. Errol Flynri is the author of the story, and when he has finished making "The Charge of the Light Brigade" he will take the leading role in the new production. Anita Louise will take the part of an English girl who refused the marriage proposal of Sir Joseph, and Olivia do llavilland will play the role of the girl who, after being ship wrecked, was captured by savages and rescued by Sir Joseph, who became her husband.
Hollywood's English colony feels that there is a great, risk attached, to the founding of a film story upon a public figure etill alive.
