ssBITTER SWEET OFFERED
AT THE CAROLINA TODAY

The "escape'' to realms of ro-
nance and musical charm which
is invariably afforded by the Mac
Donald-Eddy musicals, is assured
to all who view their latest CO.
starring operetta, the perturbation
of Noel Coward's Bitter Sweet"
which will be presented for the
last times today at the Carolina
theatre.
Filmed in Technicolor and re-
plete with some of the most de-
lightful music ever to reach the
screen, Glitter Sweet presents
Miss Macdonald as Sarah Millick,
Victorian belle who elopes with her
singing teacher, Carl Linden, en-
acted by Nelson Eddy, and goes
with him to Vienna. There, despite
straitened circumstances, they live
an idyllic existence until menace
enters in the person of Baron Won
Tranisch of the Imperial Cavalry,
who has an eye for a pretty girl.
George Sanders is an effectively
militaristic Won Tranisch and Ian
Hunter an equally disarming Lord
Shayne, who, as the formers gam
bling opponent, also becomes a
benefactor of Sarah and Carl. De-
spite a highly dramatic denoue-
ment, when Carl is challenged to
a duel in which he has no chance,
the charm of the piece is never
lost and comedy is present
throughout, particularly through
the Characterization of Felix Bres-
sart, Curt Bots, Sig Rumann and
Herman Bing. The first two are
penniless musician friends of Carl,
Rumann is the cafe owner, Herr
Schlick, and Bing plays the apop-
lectic market keeper.
A Pete Smith novelty, color car
toon and latest News of the Day
are also included on the program.
