AT THE MOVIES
CAPITOL


A whole motion picture organiza-
ton puts its complete resources and
studio behind the filming of "Are
These Our Children?" to give the
atre-goers their first authentic and
truthfully realistic drama Of twen-
tieth century youth.
RKO Radio Pictures, producers Of
the film which opens today at the
Capitol Theatre, sacrificed nothing
to guarantee it's realism. Wesley
Ruggles' original story was anthem
ticated with months of research be-
fore the film was put into produc-
ton under the guidance of the in
dustry's greatest minds. It was the
studios intention to make of "Are
These Our Children?" worthy sue
cessor to last years epic of empire,
the highly-regarded "Cimarron."
The same direstor, Wesley Rug
giles, and the same scenarist, How
ard Estabrook, responsible for the
huge success of "Cimarron," bent
every effort for many months to the
production of an entirely different
sort of picture.
There is an entire cast Of youth
full principals, some only sixteen
years of age, none over twenty. The
extras are boys and girls Of that age,
recruited from the Los Angeles high
schools.
