RENOWN THEATRE
"GOING MY WAY" Here is the picture that has been tipped for the premier Academy Award. It is a good picture — full of hurnan appeai, sympathy, faith, courage, and gentle humour. Bing is the young priest who goes to a poor New York parish to help the aging Father Fitzgibbon pull the failing church together 'and deal with the social pro'olems of a tough community — Bing — young, athletic. friendly — concentrates ) more 011 practical Christianity I than Church ritual, and goes out to mend bodies before he saves souls. Bing is good, but the highlight of the picture is the splendid peiTormance of Barry Fitzgerald as the elderly, whimsical old priest, whose occasional irascibility masks a chuckle and a kindly heart. Young newcomer Jean Heather has charm, good looks, and sings as well as she acts.
