A Mood of Reverence Is in Evidence
As New King Of Kings Is Filmed

The publicity department.
also is happy with Hunters
decision.
You can't imagine the
requests from some segments
of the sensational press,
especially in England" con-
fides one publicity man.
"One reporter wanted to
interview Hunter in a cock
tail lounge for a piece en-
titled: I Drank With Jesus
Others wanted photos Of him
playing cards on the set or
snoozing between scenes"
Times Have Changed
Christ has been portrayed
only fleetingly on the screen
since H. B. Warmers memo
rable role in the silent movie.
There is a legend around
Hollywood that Warner was
so typed as Christ that he
couldn't get anything but bit
parts after that.
Producers could see me in
nothing but religious roles"
he once said.
Hunter is aware Of the
legend but believes times
have changed and that the
public, after IS years, doesn't
take actors as seriously.
THE public" Hunter says,
knows that I am only an
actor playing the greatest
role in history"

These were the ones that we're

fewer. indicating that the
public and the reviewers have
grown steadily more matched
In taste.
The Avant Garde
One or two such films may
make many Q critical 10-best

candidate is the picture
Conspiracy Of Hearts" This
one, dealing with an order
Of nuns who created q literal

ly, may well include none Of

Tiger Bay" one Of the

another candidate with but

Also funny, but with bit

cessful one? It is too early

of School for Scoundrels."
Musicals Missing
In the musical category,
the season was almost non
productive, at least Of quail
ity. The single exception to
this rule is Bells Are Ring

day repeated. even improved
upon. her triumph in the stage

In the drama classification,
an almost irresistible con-

classification Of "the movie

and great popularity.
Hiroshima. Mon Amour" Is

they say in the sports pages.

THOSE SILENT YEARS.
Mack Sennett, Pioneer With a Pie
By jim DOYLE

North American Newspaper Alliance
NEW YORK.-A couple Of
weeks ago. Michael Sinnott
died in obscurity in Q Los

was 81 years old, friendless
and broke. Yet his death
drew columns Of space on
obituary pages not only in the
United States but throughout

ducer and a figure Of world
renown.
He gave much to the world:
The Keystone Cops, the
bathing beauty. above all the

matte device. He was o star
maker second to none. He
first brought to the screen
such people as Ben Turpin.

Art Acclaimed
He lived to see the slap
stick comedies he turned out
at the rate Of two or three q
week acclaimed as high art,
to be analyzed and dissected
by high-brow critics. He
lived to see his kind Of pic
ture washed out by the double
bill. the talkies, and the
changing tastes of America.
He parlayed a 500 debt to
a bookmaker into more than

In the last rs years Of his
life, the industry he had
helped to found had no place
for him. Nevertheless, his
autobiography, "King Of
Comedy" published five years
ago. reflects O cheerful
spirit.
Michael Sinnott was born
in Quebec. His family was O
boisterous Irish crew in q
predominantly French Cana

his neighbors, his father was
a well-to-do farmer. Young
Mike grew into a broth Of a
lad. well over 6 feet tall and
bulging with muscles.
Sought Song Career
His pride and Joy was a
resonant bass voice and he

that he wanted to be a singer.

his uncles laughed at this
quaint ambition but his
mother encouraged him,

He explains:
1T is impossible for me to
regard this remarkable oppor-
tunity as a part for which I,
as an actor can prepare. I
can only approach this with
two guideposts - absolute
humility and a willingness
to accept the emotional and
spiritual leadership Of my
director and the religious ad-
visors Of this film upon whose
wisdom we are all relying.
mfr. Bronston agreed that
1t would be impossible for me

Bronston hints that Hunt

the role may even outlast
production and extend to the
showing of the film.

says Bronston, "but MGM
