This novel by Les Savage made such an impression on Ladd that he bought the screen rights himself without even asking his studio to get the story for him. Laurence Olivier and Vivien Leigh, triumphant stars of the current festival in Great Britain, Brit-ain, are doing something never before attempted by an acting team. On alternate nights they play Antony and Cleopatra as written by Shakespeare and by George Bernard Shaw. Shaw's heroine is a young girl, Shakespeare's Shakes-peare's a mature and wily siren, Ronald Colman and Benita have signed up for another year in "The Halls of Ivy", an encouraging sign to all radio producers who believe that there is a large and growing audience for adult entertainment on the air. |
