HEART WARMING WOODLANDS TALE
 ON CApITAL'5 BILL

The all-color idyllic spectacle, The Enchanted Valley" an Eagle Lion Films release in Cine-color, will be shown here starting tonight at the Capitol Theatre. Tn this beart-warming woodland idyll, anil mai actors collaborate with the hu- man cast to provide some of the most startling and beautiful wood- land scenes ever captured by the camera.
 Alan Curtis, Anne Gwynne, Dom Git, Charley Grapewin, Joe Dew ,in, and Joseph Crehan are fea- tured. Twenty-one animal actors ranging from partners to chip hunks also play roles.
 The new film is similar in both theme and mood to it's fore-runner The Enchanted Forest
 The story tells of three fugi- tives from the police who seize as 9 hideout the home of a young lad and his grandfather who lead se- cluded lives in the woodland. Under the influence of the seemingly other-worldly life they lead in the forest, the runaways undergo a change of character and attitude toward life. They come to feel a deep affection for the boy and his grandfather, so much so, that they are influenced into making a de- cision which is described as dyna- mic in it's impact.
 Jack Schwarz produced The Ent chanted Valley" and Academy Award-winner Robert Tansey di- rected it. The film is an original story written by Frances Kava- naugh.
