THURSDAY, JUNE 8, 1944 "HANGMEN ALSO " DIE" ENDING AT CAPITOL SHOW Fresh from the front page head- lines Arnold Pressburger and Fritz Lang have snatched one of the most dramatic episodes of the war and made an exciting, inspired Ifilm, brimful with daring action and colorful romance, “Hangmen Also Die,” showing for the last |times on the Capitol screen tonight. | Co-starring Brian Donlevy, Anna |Lee and Walter Brennan, this fast- {moving melodrama is packed with adventures and thrills so breath- |taking that the feature is to be ranked with the outstanding dra- matic films of the year. | It is a drama of love, passion, land courage of the Czech people lin the terror-ridden days of Hey- |drich, the Hangman, Nazi protec- }lor of Czechoslovakia. More spe- ’ciflcally, it is the story of a man and a woman, who, along with |other patriotic members of the |Czech underground, undertake a jrelentless fight against the Nazi | regime. e e i i HOSPITAL NOTES Floyd Brynnt:‘;mdical patient, | has been discharged from St. Ann’s | Hospital.

FiLlM magnifi- | | Superlatively mounted, cently acted and eloquently written, the finest and most inspiring story that has come out of this war was presented in Warner Bros! “Edge of Darkness,” which came to the 20th Century Theatre last night. It is the story of the ‘“people’s war” against the predatory b of Nazism; the story of bitter, un- T ance against a bru- tal, depraved mentality that knows only force as its weapon and dom- ination as its creed. Errol Flynn and Ann make straight-forward, dramatic- ally intense recordings in their leading roles. As Gunnar Brogge, leader of the underground, a grim- ly serious Flynn seems utterly worthy of the confidence reposed in him by the folk of the little He more than rises to the requirements of an ex- acting role, and gains a new power and greater stature as an actor.
