PAVILION, SELSEY. Showing for three days at the Selsey Pavilion on Monday next is the delightfully different John Baxter production "THE GRAND ESCAPADE," which recounts the adventures of three young boys who travel through the English countryside in a caravan. In the course of their journeyings they visit many famous beauty spots and places of interest. The cast of this British Lion release is headed by The Artemus Boys, Peter, Philip and Jackie, who are making their first screen appearances in this picture. Other players with important roles are veteran B.B.C. actors James Harcourt and Patric Curwen. Maureen O'Hara, Dick Haymes and Harry James are starred in 20th Century Fox's brilliant new Technicolor musical hit, "DO YOU LOVE ME," which comes on Thursday to the Pavilion. Directed by Gregory Ratoff and produced by George Jessel the gay, song-studded musical also features Richard Gardiner, Richard Gaines and Stanley Prager in important roles.
