In all the years that l have been pre- seniing motion pictures. I have seen only a handful as great as "The Count-as-felt Traitor". I am happy to report that +his'7_ . is not only my opinion. but that of critics .1’ coast-to-coast. who have written reviews 3

"TH-Rll.LlcNG. AS 'THE BRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAl'! . . . . EXCWTING FOR WOMEN AS WELL AS FOR MEN!"

I feel sure that you will agree -with the critics and myself that "The Collllforfeﬂ Traitor" is a tremendous motion picture that must be seen. I urge you to see if.
