Eventually 20th Century bowed to popular opinion and decided to make a film showing the British and Commonwealth contribution to the desert victory.

The result is The Desert.Rats, the story of the Siege of Tobruk in 1941.

Truo, He Says JAMES MASON says

he has been accused of taking the part of Rommel in the film be- cause he did not want anyone else to have it.

He say the accusation Is strictly true. He feels he has a proprietary interest in the role, though the dominating part in the aim is played by Mason's close friend, Richard Burton,

So the major star look, minor role.

But the original advertising matter for Desert Rots circulated in London, read: "The Desert Rats, starring Richard Burion, James Mason and Robert New- ton."
