PRESS DETAILS ON REVERSE OF PHOTOGRAPH : NEW-LOOK BURT. THE REBEL WITH A CAUSE. HOLLYWOOD STAR BURT LANCASTER FLEW INTO LONDON ON TUESDAY (22-1-74) AS A REBEL WITH A CAUSE. THE 60-YEAR-OLD STAR, ALMOST UNRECOGNISABLE IN HIS GREY BEARD AND AMERICAN SPORTS CAP, ARRIVED FOR THE OPENING OF HIS CONTROVERSIAL FILM "EXECUTIVE ACTION" IN LONDON'S WEST END. HE DEFENDED HIS DECISION TO MAKE THE FILM, WHICH SUGGESTS THAT THE KILLING OF PRESIDENT KENNEDY WAS A CAREFULLY PLANNED CONSPIRACY WITH LEE OSWALD MERELY THE SCAPEGOAT. HE SAID: "I WOULD NOT HAVE AGREED TO MAKE THE FILM IF I HAD NOT BEEN SATISFIED THAT THERE WAS A CASE TO EXPLORE. THE WARREN COMMISSION INTO THE PRESIDENT'S DEATH LEFT TOO MANY LOOPHOLES FOR THE PEOPLE TO ACCEPT THAT OSWALD WAS THE LONE ASSASSIN. I AM CONVINCED THERE WAS SOME KIND OF PLOT..." BURT ALSO EXPLAINED HIS REMARKABLE NEW LOOK. THE CAP WAS TO HIDE A BALD PATCH. AND HE GREW THE BEARD FOR THE TITLE ROLE IN AN ASSOCIATED TELEVISION SERIES ON "MOSES - THE LAWGIVER", WHICH HE HAS JUST COMPLETED. PS: BURT LANCASTER AT LONDON'S HEATHROW AIRPORT.
