PAUL MUNI TO MAKE EMILE ZOLA STORY.
Instead of making "The Man From Kimberley," as originally scheduled, Paul Muni will appear for Warner Bros, as Emile Zola in "The Truth is on'the March." The story of the great French novelist is woven around one of the most famous cases in modern French history^—that of Captain Alfred Dreyfus. The army officer was convicted of treason, although innocent, and was imprisoned for years, until a widely-circulated pamphlet by Zola finally began the agitation that resulted in his exoneration. He was not released, however, until his case had attracted the • attention of the whole civilised world. No other mem.bers of the cast of the forthcoming Warner Bros.1 picture have yet beenchosen. Heiz Herold and Geza Herczed, authorities on Zola, are writing the screen play.
