N.Z. ‘a slobville’
PA Wellington The morals campaigner, Patricia Bartlett, has suggested that the hit film “Smash Palace,” promotes New Zealand as a violent “slobville." Miss Bartlett, the national secretary of the Society for the Promotion of Community Standards, said .the film's excesses of violence, sex, and
nudity led many people to wonder why the Film Commission had helped it financially.
It was high time the commission’s chairman, Mr Bill Sheat, and the minister of Interna! Affairs (Mr Highet) set up guidelines and procedures to stop assistances for such films, she said.
