Try adding a meta tag

#!perl
use strict;
use Devel::Peek;

my $str = "what \x{2018}film about film\x{2019} 
or \x{2018}film as film\x{2019} might mean";
Dump $str;

open OUT,'>:utf8','test.html' or die "$!";
print OUT '<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8"/>
</head>
<body><h1>'.$str.'</h1></body></html>';
