In brief, it tells the story of a family, a happy family, which sud- denly finds itself beaten, divided against itself and helpless against a regime of terror which sweeps down upon it, ret Sullavan, who may ways be depended upon for a ster- ling performance, surpasses any- thing she has done previously as the hapless heroine, Freya Rotn. From start to finish she lives the life of the girl she portrays with | sympathy and deep feeling. | The same rule applied to James | Stewart in his role of Martin| |Breitner. Stewart's sympathetic | handling of an unusual type of character puts him in line for an acting award. The surprise of the piece, how- ever, comes in the person of Robert Young who, for the first time in his screen career, essays the role! of a villain. ‘Tonight ends the double bill, “The Courageous Dr. Christian” and “Rancho Grande.” | Committee — R.
