''Anne of the Indies'' is a 1951 adventure film made by 20th Century Fox. It was directed by Jacques Tourneur and produced by George Jessel. The film stars Jean Peters (the future wife of Howard Hughes) and Louis Jourdan, with Debra Paget, Herbert Marshall, Thomas Gomez and James Robertson Justice. ==Story development== The story was intended to be based on the true life of pirate Anne Bonny. "Queen Anne of the Indies" (among other proposed titles) was a short story published in the ''Saturday Evening Post'' c. 1946, by Charleston's historical fiction author, Herbert Sass. Sass was asked by New York publishers and Los Angeles studios to write a movie treatment of the story. In 1948 he offered up a fictionalized version of the true story of Anne Bonny, including a 10-page "factual basis" for the story. Studios seemed responsive, but in the end Sass was left out of the loop until the movie came out in 1951. What ended up on the screen was very different from the original story. Without writer credit to Sass, it would be difficult to convince anyone it was the same story.〔Sass files: South Carolina Historical Society〕 Susan Hayward was originally slated for the lead role, but eventually was replaced by Jean Peters.〔Local newspaper articles: South Carolina Historical Society〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anne of the Indies」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
