TyPoiver Scores a New Hit
In Stirring CrashDive9
You'll find thrills above, below! and across' the Atlantic in
Crash Dive," the thrilling' new technicolor hit which is now
showing at the Elsinore theatre. !
' Out of a sea aflame with danger and thrills,! this film bursts
forth, hailed as the great action
picture of the year and the war!
Starring Tyrone Power, this is
the first picture of Uncle Sam's
fighting submarines, and their
story is one of intense action all
the way.
Recent Hollywood productions
have paid well-earned tribute to
other branches of our armed
forces. The army air force, : the
marines and the . navy itself have
been eulogized in films but now
Crash Dive" singles out for de
serving glory that inconspicuous
and heroic group of men who man
Uncle Sam's 'pig boats."
A we-Inspiring
From the time the picture opens
with Its awe-inspiring panorama
of the turbulent, sub-infested At
lantic in all the magnificence of
technicolor,': right down to the
last tender romantic scene " be
tween Tyrone Power and Anne
Baxter, the film is a series, of un
interrupted thrills, touching ro
mance, dramatic suspense all
photographed in the best colored
photography yet.
, Navy Lieutenant Tyrone Power
is assigned to duty aboard a sub
marine at New London, Conn.
Dana Andrews plays the part of
Power's senior officer, a young
man who has raised himself up
from the ranks. Pretty Anne Bax
ter, who will be remembered for
her outstanding performance : in
"The Pied Piper," carries the ten
der romantic theme of the pic
ture in which artful direction has
In no way been allowed to inter
fere with the speed and thrills of
the film's rapid action.
Spectacular Climax j
' 'The story itself tells of the
many and varied duties of the
submarine division. Each a little
more dangerous than the other
and requiring the nerveless, iron
constitutions of the men who man
Uncle Sam's mammoth steel
' fishes. . ? j -
The spectacular climax of the
picture takes place when mem
bers of the crew under Power's
command stage a commando-like
raid on a secret enemy refueling
base. They destroy the base, mak
ing good their escape in a dam
aged sub. through flaming oil cov
ered waters far and away the
most spectacular scene filmed
this or any' other year.
