Film Preview – Chichester Observer – Saturday, 15 May 1948

PAVILION, SELSEY. For "SONG OF SCHEHERAZADE," presented on Monday for three days, the camera is focussed on an intriguing chapter in the youth of Nicholas Rimsky-Korsakoff. Homeward bound in I865 from a world cruise, the Russian Naval training ship Almaz is becalmed in a hot Moroccan port. Nicholas (Jean Pierre Aumont), who is one of the ship’s cadets, compresses into a week’s shore leave many a strange and impassioned event that was later to prove significant in this Russian composer’s musical destiny. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday is presented "DUAL ALIBI,” the story of two twins, Jules and Georges, who are internationally famous as an acrobatic team Spotted in Paris by Barney, a circus owner, the twins come to England and are a great success. All goes well until the circus publicity man steals from them their winning ticket in the French National Lottery. How Jules and Georges track down the thief and plan the “perfect murder” leads to a highly original climax. In support is "LIVE WIRES,” another hilarious adventure of the Bowery Boys.
