This experience fell to the lot of Pierre Aumont who portrays a secret agent in M-G-M's “Assignment in Brit- tany,” dramatic story of espionage and romance opening tonight at the Capitol Theatre. Aumont, when serving in the French Army, won the Croix de |Guerre and figured in dozens of desperate battles before he escaped Europe when the Nazis overran |France. “Assignment in Brittany” rks his American screen debut. He plays a British secret agent assigned to locate a hiding place of Nazi submarines on the Brittany |coast. He assumes the identity of |another man, finds his way to that ‘man's home, meets the man's | sweetheart, becomes involved with {a charmer who proves to be a |Nazi secret agent, and after hair- |breadth escapes locates the sea wall “bcl\lnd which the “pigboats” hide. ‘A Commando raid finishes the U- boat nest. Principals include Margaret Wy- |cherly, Reginald Owen, Miles Man- ‘dcr, Sara Padden, John Emery, lGenrge Couloris, Juanita Quigley, 'and many others.
