Bronston, who may yet prove a great boon to the lonely writer of the original screenplay, was asked recently why he is concentrating on "great historical moments" instead of plunging into the rat race for best-selling novels and plays of nonf-historical import j' a rat race that, after all, obsesses most of his contem- poraries. is my preference," he replied, "to take important material from public domain and develop the myself. j. "I have found that" the crises and dramas of history have all produced extraordinary and exciting people far beyond the invention of the dramatists. The fact that they were real communicates itself to audiences even though they may not be students of history.

I also choose historic happenings which can be dramatized' to reflect the impact of the times in vhich we live and add timelv significance as well as entertainment." El Cid's Spain, U.S. Have Bond In "El Cid," Rronston declared, he depicted a man who believed it possible for people of various beliefs notably Spanish Christian and Moslem to live and work together under a common leadership. "Isn't by extension, the story of the United States, which has proved that a welter of peoples could be brought tof-gether in tolerance?" Peking'' will depict that crucial period during whieji nationals from such diverse countries as the U.S. and 4 Britain, Russia and Japan, France and Germany werfe besieged by the Chinese in the international compound. Mr.

Bronston: "The unity of peoples, no matter whal their beliefs, in the face of danger! This incident is what the U.N', symbolizes but has not. yet achieved." For "Peking." as usual, he will draw on as many lands for his players. (Bronston distributes his films in much the same way, selling "pieces" in each to the preferred, if not the highest, bidder from the various na-' tions.) Ten miles outside Madrid, on a 40-acre site, he, is presently having erected the Imperial Palace at Peking and the adjacent foreign-legation community as they looked in 1000, time of the Boxer Rebellion. Roman Empire Sounds Warning "But to get back." Bronston said, "to this thing. 'The Fall of the Roman Empire' will point out -the danger in the adulation of and preoccupation things material, which has been credited with destroying a society.

And 'The French Revolution' will show-the effect of an event which began with greed and avarice and which still affects the world we live in today." THE ART CIRCUIT: Cinema Limited, will screen an International Film Series at Pasadena City College on six Saturdays from March 3 to June 30 features to include "The Blue Angel," "Aparajito," "I'm All Right Jack," "Paths of Glorv," "Good (Japanese) and "The Cousins."
