The cast carries the story in a thrilling fashion but the picture has more merit than its dramatic en-l tertainment value.

Director Rotert Rossen has cre- ated a film in which drama is built, ; skillfully and absorbingly to a cli- max and characterizations never, for a moment, lose their authentic- ity. i Tomorrow night the local herald-, ed “The Mikado” screen.
