CASE, BOX 403, :WRANGELL, ALASKA PIDGEON GIVEN DIFFERENT ROLE, CAPITOL'S BILL Walter Pidgeon's oft-repeated wish to play an “entirely different type of character” is answered in his new | role with Greer Garson in M-G-M's Technicolor picturization of “That | Forsyte Woman,” based on Book | | One of John Galsworthy’s “The For- {syte Saga.” This feature closes at i the Capitol Theatre tonight. As Young Jolyon Forsyte, he en- | acts the so-called black sheep of the | family who finally proves to be the | only admirable member of the fabu- |lous Forsytes. | His love story with Miss Garson | | promises to set a new pattern in iscreen romance. As the brilliant ar- | | tist but shy lover, Pidgeon is cast out by his purse-proud family for mar- | rying beneath him. Throughout the | entire story, set in fashionable Lon- | !don in the 1880's, he is content {to sit on the sidelines while Miss | Garson is wooed by two other suitors. | Errol Flynn and Robert Young. | The role is in marked contrast to Pidgeon’s recent starring roles in| “Julia Misbehaves” and “Command Decision.” Tomorrow the feature “Miss Grant Takes Richmond” will open for a |two day run.
