CULVER, Culver City EL PORTAL, HX No. Hollywood FOX, Fullarton 1 GOLDEN GATE, MILLS McGUIRE MacARTHUR MUNRO Ray Tells Directing of cKing of Kings' 'Happening for First Timel Effect GoTal in Christ Story BY PHILIP K. SCIIEUER "It has turned out very well. I'm very pleased with it." This was Nicholas Ray on "King of Kings," which he directed, and he smiled as if he meant it He has been in Culver City, completing editing, at MGM 4h.

30m. down to; ho hoped, 2h. 40m. Ray, whom everyone calls had been working on the Christ life story for a year; actual shooting, in Spain, took about five months. i Nick explained why he had held out for Philip Yordan as the screenwriter Yordan usually having been identified with contemporary dramas and more than one shocker: "I asked for him and made concessions to have him.

They had asked me to write it. I didn't feel up to the responsibility; I am as impatient with" the writer on my own screenplay 1 as with others! "I had had Phil before on a story, I wanted a very tough constructionist and I knew he was the man, someone, who foiild' provider connective tissue dramatically and keep the story going. This was a very difficult assignment unless the picture was to be- a series of table'aus; it had to be set in a time and place and the audience had to be with it. The thing we had to capture was an age of expectancy, a feeling that all this was happening for the first time. "Our wording is close to the modern Bible, a kind of 'Spoon River Anthology' English mostly an avoidance of contractions." Sermon on Mount Was Too Real' In his book, Nick said, the "big hero behind the scenes" was Samuel Bronston, the producer, "He is a man with a terrific spirit about malting films.

He lost $5 million on 'John Paul Jones and came right back with some of the same backers. He was offered a large sum to abandon the project $1.5 million (by another moviemaker). And he made the picture without touching Metro money." Of an available $8 million, the film was "brought in" for $7.5 million. In the role of Christ, Nick related, Jeffrey Hunter proved so impressive that when he was delivering the Sermon the Mount before 7,300 extras, many of them fell to their knees and made the sign of the cross. It had to be explained to them that the Sermon predated the Crucifixion.

In his camera concept Ray tried to stay away from Renaissance art: "All our Disciples except Peter are youngr-as they wTere Renaissance art made them old, giving them sainthood." Nick, whose previous movie was "The Savage Innocents," with Anthony Quinn and Yoko Tani as Eskimos, will next tackle "The Tribe That Lost Its Head," the novel of Africa by Nicholas Monserrat. Yordan is making the adaptation and the pair will meet shortly in Paris to write the script together. Ray is also interested in a new, second novel by Yael Dayan of Israel; he will visit her there over New Year's. New Producing Pair Back Selves A Philadelphia exhibitor and an ex-publicist will finance their own production with "Bad As I Am," by William Ard Danny Fontaine" as a See Directory Below for 2nd FtMurtf Kivarsioi I. hi rvan.
