The Alexander
Ihedter, April 10 II
A tender love story with the
unusual theme of an inter-
racial conflict, Kings Go
Forth" will be presented at
the Alexander Theater this
coming Sunday, Monday and
Tuesday. Starring Frank SIN
atra, Tony Curtis and Natalie
Wood, as the three principals
involved, the picture which
tells of two men who fall in
love with a girl who is half
Negro; is in no sense a preach
ment, but a warm moving
story of two men and a girl;
one man genuinely in love,
the other is out for what he
can get, and the girl unfortu-
nately unable to distinguish
between true love and "a good
line"
While serving in France (the
Riviera) toward the close of
World War II, Sinatra and
Curtis meet Monique, played
by Natalie Wood, w h o 5 e
mother is white and father,
who dies before the film be-
gan, was a Negro. This makes
no difference TO SinaIra VINO
falls deeply in love with her,
Curtis, on the other hand,
sees q pretty girl, and a
chance for a quick romance,
his past life has been one long
series of love EN- and leave
EN- episodes, and goes on the
make in a very sincere way.
Monique believes him and re-
turns his love. Her bitter dis
appointment at learning the
truth, Sinatra's reaction, and
