RONALD COLMAN
STILL A BRITISH CITIZEN DISLIKE OF PUBLICITY After Ronald Colman finished “The Light That Failed” he revealed that, although twenty years a resident of the United States, he was still a British citizen. Mr Colman hacf intended to take a trip to England. At the last moment he was detained. Mentioning the matter to an interviewer, he said, “Oh, well, it’s pretty good here in California- fishing, tennis. I like the life. “Staying here makes one lazy, saves a lot of trouble—all that nuisance attendant on leaving the country, re-entry permit, and paying all up te the day of departure.” In Mr L - ims-oi’s two decades of Hollywood tnousands of players have poured across the screen. Many of them have been distinguished, but Colman has always retained his place as an individualist. And this, without the smallest apparent effort. He dislikes personal advertisement, and has always been the despair of the publicity departments. And today he has one of the largest fan mails in Hollywood!
