RONALD COLMAN
MAY BE SEEN AS CHRIST ENTHUSIASM FOR PROPOSAL It is said that Ronald Colman thinks of appearing as Jesus Christ in a film, which although not based on the life of Christ, has the Saviour as the dominant figure. The idea originated with Director Rowland Brown, who found Ronald Colman enthusiastic. Before production begins, inquiries will be made from the censor authorities, both in America and England, as to their attitude towards such a production. Only once has Jesus Christ been portrayed on the screen, and that was by H. B. Warner in 44 King of Kings " many years ago.
