Bringing the films here is a non-profit venture by a small group of Juneauites interested in foreign and old films not shown in commercial theaters. ‘The picture is 90 minutes long and begins at 8 p.m., both nights. Admission will be 70 cents, plus 15 cents tax. Cost of bringing the film here will be around $80. There is not an invented thing or person in the picture, which was filmed in France in 1946. George Rouquier, the director, was highly praised by critics for his handling of small casual scraps of existence which are neither plot nor incident nor even descriptive, nor revealing of mood or character, but are merely themselves, and of the es- sence of being. Organizing these sequences has brought to the screen a film tre- mendously articulate, and brings out the beauty of absolute plainness. MRS. MITCHELL HERE Mrs. Walter E. Mitchell arrived from Seattle on the Aleutian yes- terday to join her husband for the remaining two weeks of his Alaska tour. Mr. Mitchell is vice president of the National Bank of Commerce for Yakutat. and head of its Alaska Department. Your Depeosits ARE P | SAFE !
