Field In Cast Show
Opens Today.
"Kings Row," the eagerly
awaited film version of the
Henry Bellamann novel, opens

mings, Ronald Reagan and Betty
Field are starred and the fea

Coburn, Judith Anderson,
Claude Rains, Nancy Coleman,

enport and Kaaren Verne.
This is the story of young
people, struggling to find their
happiness against the opposition
of circumstance and misunder
standing. The background of the
story is the seething undercur
rent of small city life, the petty
Jealousies, the pathetic struggle
for survival, the clash of ideas
nd Ideals between indivlduels
and generations.
It is particularly the story of
two romances, one between Ann
Sheridan, playing Randy Mona-
when, and Ronald Reagan, as
Drake McHugh, and the other
Oa three-way afafir, first between
Robert Cummings as Parris Mit
chell and Betty Field as Casan-
cra Tower and later, after 'Cas
i ie dies, between Cummings and
Kaaren Verne as Elise Sandor.
Woven into the intricate tale
ef these lives and loves It the
whole parcel and pattern cf
mall city doings, the back-fence
ossip, the whispered accusa
tions, the high spots of love and
sacrifice that go to make up life
In any typically American com
munity.
