He's making a picture with a background in the American Revolution, a big picture with a flock of stars and & top budget and a big location trip. Last man to try this was David Wark Griffith, of the silents. Griffith made “Americ in 1924, brought in so few box-office beans that it started a cycle, cycle away from Spirit of '76 stuff that has persisted until toda The reason Frank Lloyd is bucking the legendary jinx is a schoolmarm named Ilizabeth Page. Miss ge wrote a volumi- nous novel about the beginning of the U. S. 8, and she called it “Tree of Liberty." nt book started out, on the basis of excellent reviews, to be another “Gone With the Wind,” but somewhere along the route the wind abated and the novel became Jjust an unusnaily good seller instead of a best. Lloyd is still con- vinced “Tree of Libes Wikl ce a best-seller movie. the old mas and “Amer ter The exeelle He's calling it, however, “The Howards of Virginia.” Afraid, perhaps, that a pictu called ree of Liberty” would be con- fused with a Warner Bros. “patriotic short,” the only movies which have contends recently that Yankee Doodle stuff was good box-office. Afraid, he says, that coming out in an election year it would buck the apathy engendered in a voting populace which will have had its ears rattled by political oratoryegenerously sea- soned with the word “liberty.” Anyway, since the story is about early Virginia familes including one named Howard, he figures “The Howards of Virginia” fits better.

As he describes it, the historical aspects will ‘be served in easy-to-take capsules of drama and comedy, with none of that hold-everything-here-comes-a-lesson rawness. v Lioyd took his principals (Cary Grant and Martha Scott) to the Rockefller-restored town of Williamsburg, Va., where for the first time permission was granted a movie company to use the restorations and originals of colonially important structures Lloyd says he never had finer, more truly authentic sets, and the same goes for the reproductions in use for studio ‘shots. Frank Lloyd would be all for authenticity o matter what, but here he has a practical reason aside from art. The Rocke- feller people granted use of Williamsburg only on condition that studio-created sets would mainttain fidelity to their originals. So studio artists have matched woodwork, chandeliers, exterior brick, fireplaces, tile, stairway, even the usually unnoticed floo; [} with punmunx exactitude. ¢ ) at p;e sets have to be sent east and officially before ficy can be-used 10r the picture.
