ROMANTIC FILM INNEW SHOWING AT 20TH CENTURY Boyer, Goddard, Havil- | land, leads in "Hold | Back the Dawn” Handsome Charles Boyer with Olivia de Havilland and Paul | ette Goddard, has the most exciting | romantic role of his colorful career | in “Hold Back the Dawn,” the Para- mount picture now on at the 20th | Century Theatre. Produced by Arthur Hornblow, Jr and directed by Mitchell Leisen, the men who gave us “T Wanted Wing: this new excursion into high mance tells a story of an unmitigat- ed scoundrel, a love high-binder from the once bright spots of opa, who tries to crash U. S. immigration | barriers by ma: ng an unsuspect- ing American girl. How this cynical, unscrupulous man-of-the-world gets caught in his own trap is the story of “Hold Back the Dawn.” Suave, continental, dark - eyed Boyer plays the scoundrel, with Miss de Havilland as his victim and | Miss Goddard as the glamorous feminine menace. All three turn in superlative performances, accord- !ing to all advance reports. Despite the tense love story, “Hold Back the Dawn” has many lighter moments to mitigate the sharpness of its absorbing drama.
