“LADY HAMILTON”
— ■? — MOTION PICTURE SHOWN ON BATTLESHIP. DURING HISTORIC MEETING. Mr H Andrews, New Zealand manager' of United Artists (Australasia) Pty., Ltd., has received cable advice from London stating that it has been officially disclosed in London that during the historic Atlantic meeting of Mr Winston Churchill and President Roosevelt recently they saw the motion picture “Lady Hamilton” aboard the battleship “Prince of Wales.” It was further stated that the British Prime Minister has now seen the film four times. At the conclusion of the screening on the “Prince of Wales” Mr Churchill turned to the officers present and said: “I thought this film would interest you gentlemen as some of you have so recently been under fire of the enemy in a matter of equal historic importance.” His reference was to the scene depicting the Battle of Trafalgar in the film and to the action the “Prince of Wales” had taken against the “Bismarck.” “Lady Hamilton" will be shown in Masterton shortly.
