Film Preview – Bognor Regis Observer – Saturday, 15 January 1949

Transcript:

PAVILION, SELSEY. Film fare on Monday for three days comes in the form of the latest Cinecolor production, "THE RED STALLION." Its theme is the simple and poignant story of a youngster's efforts to save his grandmother's ranch from financial failure by training his thoroughbred stallion to become a racehorse. Ted Donaldson is the young star. Brilliant actress Sonia Dresdel re-enacts the role that made her famous on the West End stage in the screen adaptation of "THIS WAS A WOMAN," which completes the week's entertainment. Joan Morgan's play tells the story of a selfish, ambitious, possessive woman whose wicked scheming nearly ruins her daughter's marriage, and results in the death of her charming husband. It is her strong-willed son who uncovers the truth and finally exposes her.
