THE M6M STORY,
FUN WITH GIRLS,
CAPITOLTHEATRE
There will be three great days at
the Capitol Theatre starting Sun
day.
First of the features to be shown
will be "The MGM Story,” a most
unusual picture, charming and thril
ling minutes inside Hollywood, 6C
top stars in action and scenes from
24 coming hits.
Then there is fun with the girls,
in "Watch the Birdie.”
Red Skelton enacts not one but
three different characterizations in
his latest hilarity hit. First he is
seen as the hero, Rusty, then as
Pop, and finally as grandpop!
Arlene Dahl had her most strenu
ous film experience during the pic
ture’s climactic chase sequence in
which she and Skelton elude the
villians in a hectic ride aboard a
two-story straddle truck!
Ann Miller deserts her dancing
shoes for an out-and-out comedy
role as Miss Lucky Vista, a beauty
prize winner with more looks than
brains. Incidentally, the new come
dy reunites her with Skelton in their
first picture together since “Hav
. ing a Wonderful Time.”
