STATE THEATRE
“HUDSON’S BAY.” “Hudson’s Bay,” 20th Century-Fox adventure, will be shown tonight at the State Theatre. Portraying Pierre Radisson, the colourful, reckless “First Canadian,” Muni turns in a superb"performance which is sure to put him in the running for another Academy Award. Muni's latest role is distinctly different from the austere types of roles he made famous in, recent years, taking him away from the sombre backgrounds with which he has been associated —into an atmosphere of romantic adventure. Beautifully filmed, “Hudson’s Bay” depicts a turbulent story of roaring action in the north’s frozen wilderness. Although it is essentially the dramatic story of the founding of a great commercial empire in Canada, the film is also a powerful and eloquent story of courage. Woven into the story is a gripping romance between John Sutton and lovely Gene Tierney. It is one of the motivating elements of the picture. Virginia Field and Nigel Bruce are also seen in the brilliant featured cast. ,
