TV FILM OF COLONY SHOWN

As Bill Holden

sees Hongkong

By ANTHONY FULLER

MONDAY, MARCH 27, 1961.

On Friday evening, at the Foreign Correspondants' Club, Hongkong, was screened the 16mm Television film, "Report On Hongkong," with a commentary by William Holden, star of the film, "The World of Suzie Wong."

The original object of

I was Lo give the matti- million TV audience of United States of America an objective account of present day Life in Hongkong.

The method chosen was select three representälive is pes of Hongkongda residents. The persons selected were Mr Michinel Turner, Chairman and Chief Manager of the Hong- kong and Shanghal Banking Corporation; Mr Kan, a wealthy Chinese lawyer; and an Ini- pecunious refugee family.

The camera, realising it had a realistle job of reporting to do, eschewed all the beauty spots of Hongkong, save when it fasten- at upon Mr Hulden making his commentary from the upper balcony of the Foreign Corres- pondents' Club, when a distant view of the Kowloon Hills was seen over Mr Holden's shoulder.
