"RED DANBUE" IS
DRAMATIC STORY,
CAPITOL THEATRE
“The Red Danube,” new M-G-M
attraction at the Capitol Theatre, of
fers strong dramatic meat. Telling
the story of a British colonel and
his staff, who are sent to Vienna
after the war to ferret out subver
sive activities among displaced per
sons and to forcibly turn over Soviet
citizens for repatriation, this pic
ture doesn’t pull a single punch in
its gripping action.
The plot centers on one of the vic
tims of Soviet injustice, the lovely
ballet dancer, Maria, who is relent
lessly hounded by the Russian offic
er, Piniev, and who takes refuge
in the convent in which Col. Nicobar
and his assistants, a young major,
and and attractive subaltern, named
Audrey, are billeted.
This trio enlists the aid of the con
sent's Mother Superior in protect
ing Maria from her tormentors, and
the episodes in which they enable
I her to escape from a DP train and
secret her away in a mountain re
I treat under the very eyes of the
i Russians are permeated with ten
! sion and suspense,
i Through the action runs a roman
tic thread between Maria and the
young major and there is an addi
tional underlying theme in the
sometimes dramatic, sometimes com
ic conflict between the cynical Col.
Nicobar and tlje fervent and cour
ageous Mother Superior.
It would be unfair to reveal the
outcome of the manhunt for Maria;
sufficient to say that the story moves
to a stirring climax.
