“Actually. the reverse is often true. Take a girl like Kay Ken- dall. ew her well because we were under contract to S. Ar- Ihur Rank together. She made a terrific hit in a picture called Genevieve. You'd expect her ca- ner to boom. But nothing hap- pened. Absolutely nothing.

The actor said he wasn't able to come to Hollywood before be- cause he was always tied up with projects when offers came. As England's foremost leading man. he has worked in films almost. constantly. But now he's able to consider Hollywood offers and said he's looking forward to work- ‘ ing here. ,

No doubt this vllll cause an up-l roar in England. but Hawkins is-l outspoken in his defence of per- formers who have been criticized over there.

"There was a big furore when Stewart Granger and Jean Sim-5 mons took out citizenship papers‘ here.“ he observed. “But wh_v| shollldn't they? They're making; a great deal of money in is‘ country; it's only right for them to become citizens. T

"Another big u p r o a r was caused when Noel Coward dis- posed of all his property in Eng- land to escape taxes. Why, the man has paid hundreds of thou- sands of pounds in taxes; why shouldn't he find some w y to keep some of the money he makes?"
