Authorized Dealer GENERAL @ ELECTRIC WRINGER WASHERS "RED DANBUE" IS DRAMATIC STORY, CAPITOL THEATRE “The Red Danube,” new M-G-M |attraction at the Capitol Theatre, of- fers strong dramatic meat. Telling | the story of a British colonel and his staff, who are sent to Vienna |after the war to ferret out subver- sive activities among displaced per- sons and to forcibly turn over Soviet citizens for repatriation; this pic- ture doesn’t pull a single punch in its gripping action. The plot centers on one of the vic- !tims of Soviet injustice, the lovely | ballet dancer, Maria, who is relent- lessly hounded by the Russian offic- er, Piniev, and who takes refuge in the convent in which Col. Nicobar |and his assistants, a young major, ! and and attractive subaltern, named Audrey, are billeted. | This trio enlists the aid of the con- | vent’s Mother Superior in protect- | ing Maria from her tormentors, and the episodes in which they enable her to escape from a DP train and i secret her away in a mountain re- | treat under the very eyes of the | Russians are permeated with ten- | sion and suspense. | Through the action runs a roman- tic thread between Maria and the young major and there is an addi- tional underlying theme in the sometimes dramatic, sometimes com- ic conflict between the cynical Col. Nicobar and the fervent and cour- ageous Mother Superior. It would be unfair to reveal the outcome of the manhunt for Maria; sufficient to say that the story moves to a stirring climax.
