"Can Can"
"Can Can"
For those who enjoy a musical, and who doesn't, what better than Cole Porter's "Can Can"? A very capable cast includes Shirley MaeLaine and Maurice Chevalier.
The amazing world light-heavyweight champion, 45 years (plus) Archie Moore, has a part in a new version of Mark Twain's "Huckleberry Finn." Marked down for showing in Wellington later this year.
Also of interest. An adaptation of the famous novel, "Sons and Lovers," by D .H. Lawrence, with Peter Finch and Joan Collins.
20th Century Fox have "cashed in" on the latest with the mostest, a character called Fabian. Soon his first film, "Hound Dog Man", will be showing. It's got some of the flavour of "April Love" and is not merely a rock 'n' roll catalogue.
Best-selling novel "The World of Suzie Wong," written by Richard Mason, is coming to Wellington as a multi-million-dollar movie starring lovely Eurasian actress France Nuyen, who appeared in the Broadway stage production. William Holden plays opposite Miss Nuyen as her "struggling artist" lover.
