Transcript:

PAVILION, SELSEY. Something delightfully different is promised to filmgoers if they visit the Pavilion on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, when Robert Young, Maureen O'Hara and Clifton Webb co-star in the hilarious new comedy "SITTING PRETTY." Based on a novel, the story is of a young couple with three unruly children and their efforts to find a resident nursemaid for them. Finally, their advertisement is answered by one Belvedere, a sophisticated gentleman who, although he hates children, proves his intention by becoming the new babysitter. The following fun flows freely. When both fall in love with the same beautiful and gay young girl, the bitter hatred between two brothers reaches such a peak of enmity as to culminate in murder and the innocent girl faces the gallows. Eric Portman and Sally Gray enact this powerful Edwardian drama for the remainder of the week in "THE MARK OF CAIN."
