of Kings" last week in Lon- don, Metro-Goldwyn - simultaneously Mayer released pictures of Jeffrey Hunter in the role of the

Christ,

While a great deal of publi- city has flowed in to this office over the past year, not one of the countless photographs portrayed a facial view of Hunter. The reason for this was that Samuel Bronston, the producer of "King of Kings" realised he was dealing with ☐ sensitive subject, which if mis- handled would give universal offence.

So while making the film, Jeffrey Hunter was with-

drawn from the rest of the cast. He was not allowed to drink or smoke, attend parties, or in any other way mingle or relax with his colleagues.

The effect of Hunter appear. ing as the Christ had an snormous effect among the peasants of Spain where the film,was made. On one occasion, when ap- pearing in the Sermon on the Mount scene, os Hun- ter stood to address the assembled multitude, a crowd of peasants, so awed at the scene knelt in re- verence as Hunter, spoke. No date has yet been fixed when "King of Kings" will be screened in Hongkong.
