Wardrobe Difficulty
Historical barristers’ wigs and gowns worn by Gregory Peck, Charles Laughton and Charles Coburn in David O. Selznick’s “The Paradine Case,” which is to be screened at Whakatane, were imported from London. The barrister’s robes, which are over 200 years old, were obtained after long negotiations with Old Bailey court officials. Shortage of material to make both the wigs and gowns made it . impossible for the studio wardrobe department to create costumes.
