FAMILY TRAGEDY REVEALED IN BiLL, CAPITOL THEATRE “They Met at Midnight,” which brings the superb Anna Neagle to the Capitol screen tells the pro- foundly moving story of a girl who, believed to have been drowned after a shipwreck, returns to her husband to find him the father of a child by a second wife. | Miss Neagle plays the girl, Diana Fraser, who meets the handsome Capt. Alan Pearson (Michael Wild- ing) during a wartime London |blackout and, after a whirlwind courtship, marries him on the eve of her orders to sail aboard for duty \with the Waves. When her ship is 'sunk by a Japanese submarine, Diana is one of a handful of sur- vivors who struggle to save both mind and body during more than a | year of bleak existence on a tropical | island. Bill Weston (Michael Laurence), a sailor member of the group of | castaways, tries in vain to make | Diana forget the husband who now 1 believes her to be dead and who, after a period of despondency, has married an American Red Cross |worker on the rebound. When the | castaways are finally discovered and returned to England, Diana is met | with the shock of discovering not only that Alan has married again but is the father of a child who will be termed illegitimate should he divorce the second wife. How this dramatic impasse is finally resolved makes for one of the most gripping and powearful situations ever de- picted in a screen story. | | | land Mrs, Mog, Jay Jeliner,- John | Coverdale, G.
