Albert Hall Boxing Scenes

Another Alfred Hitchcock picture, which he has made for British International, is "The Ring," starring Carl Brisson, the well-known musical comedy actor, and Lilian Hall-Davis. The Schufftan process, enabling action to be imposed on miniature scenery, has been employed for the Albert Hall boxing scenes. Mr. J. Matania, the Italian artist, has painted thousands of heads representing the audience on a photograph of the building, which will be dove-tailed in with a "set" of part of it to give an impression of the whole huge hall.
