Swiss Drive To Film William Tell In Switzerland
A Swiss film project led by 33 year old Michel Dickoff with a two million franc budget plans a native William Tell movie in Switzerland. Historians note Tell legends evolving from Schiller and Rossini works, with discoveries supporting some authenticity yet questions remain about accuracy. The tale is echoed in Altdorf and Interlaken with Toll Tell sites and a giant sugar leaf rock bearing a tribute to Schiller.
