“Mutiny Of The
Bounty”
Film Damaged—Cameramen Return to Tahiti
From Our Own Correspondent.
Papeete, May 11.
A PORTION of the motion picture “Mutiny of the Bounty,” which was recently filmed in Tahiti, was found upon arrival in Hollywood to be seriously damaged. It was discovered that the celluloid had been mutilated and that it was definitely of no use. How the accident occurred is unknown.
In consequence of this mishap—which represents a great loss to the Metro- Goldwyn Company—some of the camera operators returned to Tahiti by the Manganui at the end of April to take this damaged part of the picture over again. In this work they will be assisted by the “Typee” party—which is also working here for Metro-Goldwyn.
