REGENT PREVIEW
"SONG OF RUSSIA'*
From the musical heritage and fighting heart of a proud people comes the greatest romantic drama in years. Set to glorious melody from the very heart and soul of a nation, "SONG OF RUSSIA" is p'erhaps the greatest picture of its type ever to come to the screen. Robert Taylor, playing th? part of an American symphony composer and Susan Peters cast as a Russian pianist are in the leading roles.. Taylor, conducting a 10$ piece symphony orchestra makes a goodwill tour of Russia before the outi>r( ak of Russo-German hostilities. I.- Russia, he falls in love with, an i marries a Russian girl, Nadya (Si.Peters). The Nazis march in.o Russia,* and Nadya is torn betw.vii love for her husband, her family and her native land. "Song of Russia captures the spirit of the Russian people. Woven throughout .the story ar<? symphonic renditions of that nat'nn's immortal composers while the song "And Russia is Her' Name" written especially for the film is also' featured prominently. "Song of Russia" needs no recommendation. The packed houses which were drawn to "Waterloo Bridge" and the epic story of "Bataan" will find an even greater inspiration in this unforgettable romantic story of a beautiful girl of the soil whose own love of music •> and. passion for freedom gave way only to l#;r love for the man who stole her heart. Coming to the Regent Saturday 9, Monday 11, Tuesday 12 June.
