Realistic Background And "Feel" Necessary

Hollywood will move to England for filming of cortain scenes in the picturization of Howard Spring's best-selling novel; "My Son, My Son!" if present plans of Edward Smail Productions materialize.

Releasing through United Artists, the company expects to send the entire troupe of principals abroad, so that the high- fights of the picture can be photographed on the very location of the story. Interiors will be made in the Hollywood studios.

Producer Edward Small, who has expressed the belief that outstanding pictures can be made only upon the basis of substan- tial stories, is likewise of the opinion that motion pictures should be completely nathentic.
