Here's another of those trailers which advertised a coming attraction, masquerading as a selected short subject. Look! It's got a title and everything! Maybe they'll show a new Three Stooges short!
This short subject -- may as well call it that -- concerns itself with the big-budget production of THE COMEDIANS, and it make a fuss about its stars (Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Alec Guinness), and the fact the movie was set in Haiti, but was being shot in Dahomey, because events in Haiti were too closely mirroring events in the novel written by Graham Green.
Well, it's a talking point. When it comes to getting people to see a new movie, there's no limit to what they'll say.
