CIVIC THEATRE
TG-DAY AND TO-MORROW Ten years ago there came bursting from the screen a story so moving, so vital, that it endeared nseli lo the hearts of all who were privileged to witness it. li was the story, told on the screen, of Charles Dickens' "A Tale of Two Cities." For years this film has lived in your memory as perfection in screen enuertainment and shortly it will be possiole for you to see once again this best-remembered of all films. Once again you may see Ronald Jolman in the role of Sidney Carton, the wastrel who considers his own life of so little importance that he is willing to sacrifice it in order that two lovers may find happiness together. See also Basil Rathbone, as the niighty Marquis St. Evremonde, Elizabeth Allan as Lucie, the girl who inspires Carton's noble action, , and Edna May Oliver as Miss Pross, Lucie's devoted governess. "A Tale of Two Cities" is, vvithout doubt, Dickens' best-ioved: book, and ' Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer has faithfully reproduced each surring chapter from the most tender love scene to the hell-pit of suffering and anguish that was Paris during the Revolution. The Civic Theatre is proud to present this film to an eager public for a Tuesday and Wednesday season.
