Sir.-Although R. Evans can boast of being a New Zealander of four generations, he shows no love of the fair play so inherent in the British\character. His remarks about G.M. are most unfair. G.M. knows his job, does it well, and for fair and intelligent criticism, there is no one in New Zealand to touch him. As regards British films, does R. Evans realise that all the British films we are now seeing in New Zealatid are
3-4 years old, and were made in "the front line." And if this same "front line" of civilians had not been able to "stand up to it,’ R. Evans would not be in the position to-day to be able to write and express freely his opinion of British films, actors and photography or anything else. He would be under Nazi Rule!
