barbarian princess

It is ironical that this title should create such outrage , after all wasnt this name given to her by the American press at the time .( San Francisco Press ).
All Mark Forby ( director ) has done is written the usual adaptation of history for the purposes of Hollywood.
As he has included a love interest , perhaps the title could be changed to "Pineapple Princess".
Here in England we dont seem to be bothered when American stars play Robin Hood or Rob Roy.
As I was in this film, playing the butler to President Cleavland , which was shot at Holkham Hall in Norfolk, I could tell that Forby was helming a film that the critics would pounce on.
However , I hope that it brings more tourists to this most beautiful of islands , which I have visited.
Aloha
