MADAME CURIE'
OPENS AT .POLI'S
Greer Carson, Walter Pid-
geOn CO=Starred in Ten=
der Love Story

When Pierre and Marie Curie,
two obscure physicists, announced
to the world their isolation Of the
precious element radiu, their recog-
milton was instant. The way was
opened for them to claim place
among the most famous scientists
of all time. Recently Eve Curie
published biography of her famous
parents entitled Madame Curie,"
which became an international
best-seller MGM has brought this
biography to the screen in fine
and impressive production starring
Greer Carson and Walter Pidgeon
as the devoted mates. This great
film opening today at the Loew
Poll theater is said to be the great
est and most tender love story pre-
sented on the screen. Few people
realize the great and tender ro-
nance the two famed scientists lived
during their married life. They
loved each other with a devotion
startling in Its intensity and work.
ed together for beloved science.
The woman, who was later to be-
come the famed Marie Curie, met
her husband, already an established
physicist, while studying In Paris
and working in his laboratory.
Soon Pierre, who formerly had little
use for women, found himself in
love with the beautiful Polish girl.
After their marriage the CURES
continued to work together to
isolate what they believed to be
an unknown element which they
called radiunl. They were given no
assistance and carried on their
arduous experiments in an unused
shed. There they worked for four
long years driven on by Marie's
stubborn persistence until they met
with success and world acclaim.
Walter Pidegeon, adorned with a
beard for greater authenticity, gives
the finest performance of his diStin-
guished career as the tender and
scholarly professor. Greer Carson,
who won the coveted Academy
award last year as "Mr. Miniver"
demonstrates again that without a
doubt she is the first lady of the
screen. She has captured completely
the charm and genius that was
Marie Curie.
Dame May Witty and Henry
Travers, who also appeared in MRS.
Miniver," play the parents Of
Pierre, and Robert Walker. who
made his screen debut In "Bataam, T"
is cast as Pierre's assistant and
later the best friend of the CURES.
Madame Curie' is truly one of the
greatest productions ever to reach
the screen.
AS an extra added treat there will
be variety of the latest Selected
Short Subjects" as well as the latest
up-to-the-minute news events. This

STATE OFFERING
THE NORTH STAR
Drama of Russians Heroic
Resistance to Nazis Cur.
rent Attraction

One of the very finest films Of
recent months Is The North Star
currently at Warmers State theater
which presents an inspiring and
tremendously moving drama of our
Russian Allies and their heroic re-
sistance to the Nazi invaders.
Three stories in one are deity
woven together to make up this
realistic offering; a charming ro-
nance between two youngsters of a
Russian village near the Bessara-
bian border, the story of that vii
lage and its inhabitants as the Nazi
blitz attack changes it from a hap
by and peaceful community to a
smoking ruin, and the stirring eff
forts of an elderly farmer and four
young people to bring weapons
through the German lines and arm
the able-bodied men hiding in the
woods awaiting the moment to
avenge the towns destruction.
Told with deep sympathy and
feeling, and skilfully building up to
the powerful climax with series
of colorful and revealing scenes of
Russian peasant life, THE North
Star" is indeed great picture and
one that every f1lmgoer should see.
A new romantic twosome of
Anne Baxter and newcomer Farley
Granger does brilliantly in carry
ing the films love interest and
much of its breathless suspense in
the arms-smuggling sequence. Dana
Andrews is splendid as young
bombardier, and outstanding per-
formances are given by Walter
Huston as the village doctor, Ann
Harding as peasant mother, Wal
ter Brennan as farmer, Jane
Withers as a f1dgety schoolgirl,
Dean Jaeger as the Soviet leader
and Erich Won Stroheim as a Ger
man army doctor.
Authentic settings and thrilling
spectacles, along with magnificent
photography keep the films in
tereSt at high pitch and Lewis
Milestone's telling direction Of Lii
liam Hellman's forceful story and
screen play puts the finishing
touch to this notable piece Of film
fare.

strangest living organisms. They
will set aside one day per
month, to meet as a unit, to
discuss their problems pertain

through laziness, negligence,

to attend.

This is almost chronic.

will have to qualify as a secre-

mistake in our favor, the COM
pany promptly corrects it. If it
happens to be in their favor
they ignore it. This is straight
