Peter Lorre, who won Nazi .
wrath by an impudent rejection
of Adolf Hitler's personal in-
vitation to make films in Ger-
many, has received a renewal of
that invitation — this time for
democratic sources. Emil Fuerst,
member of the cultural sub-com-
mittee of the Free Germany
group in Moscow, has extended
to Lorre and other distinguished
anti-Nazi artists an invitation to
return to Germany after the fall
of Hitler.
Lorre left Germany three days
before Hitler came to power in
1933. He had just played the
murderer in the world-famed
"M." In reply to Hitler's invita-
tion, he said, "Thank you, but 1
think Germany has room for only
one mass murderer of my ability
and yours."

As soon as it is released in
your city be sure to see 20th
Century-Fox's new film made
by the United States Navy, "The
Fighting Lady" with Lt. Robert
Taylor as narrator. There is such
grandeur, something so tremend-
ous about this picture that it
takes immediate rank as one of
the greatest, if not the supreme-
ly greatest, authentic air warfare
film to come out of this war.
In its essence, the film is the
record of a single aircraft carrier
of the U. S. Navy from its
launching to the present moment,
but it goes well beyond this. It
is climaxed with the most sen-
sationally spectacular aerial
combat scenes ever shown and
for the first time in human his-
tory, every step of a tremendous
battle is brought to those at
hoine, so graphically that one
lives every moment of it. Every
foot of this film battle was shot
from the planes as they roared
into combat.
