UNUSUAL FILM
The most unusual picture yet produced in England is "Stairway to Heaven," the J. . Arthur Rank production for Universal-Inter-national release which stais such brilliant players as David Niven,
Raymond Massey, Roger Livesey and Kim Hunter. This spectacle also has the distinction of presenting the most lavish treatment of the subject of heaven and earth ever attempted in a motion picture, displaying among other features, a gigantic escalator for the transportation of principals between this world and the other. Briefly the story concerns a R.A.F. pfiot who bails out of a burning bomber over England, falls in.love with an American WAC on duty in a control tower when he raaios a tare_ ! well before leaping and must be Itried by a high court in heaven to j determine whether he can remam 'on earth; the result is a triumph I for love over even heavenly regu- ! lations.
