Harvard May Be Site Of Movie Next Spring

Movie cameras and crews will invade Cambridge late this spring to film scenes for the screen adaptation of The Fume of Poppies, a novel by Jonathan Kosol '58.

Theodore Ritter, the film's producer, said last night that camera crews will spend about two weeks here at the end of the Spring Term photographing outdoor scenes. Ritter said that he hopes to use Harvard and Radcliffe students in group shots.

The novel, a story of a love affair between a Harvardman and a 'Cliffie, takes place mostly in Cambridge and in Europe. Other outdoor shots for the film, Ritter said, will be made on location in Spain, and the indoor scenes will be shot in European studios.
