LAUREN BACALL, AN AMERICAN NURSE, AND KENNETH MORE, A BRITISH CAPTAIN, ASSIGNED TO DELIVER A FUGITIVE CHILD-RULER TO SAFETY, WATCH REBELS ATTACK THEIR ANTIQUATED TRAIN. TRADE PAPER CRITICS RATE THIS EXCITING DRAMA, MARCEL HELLMAN'S BEST SCREENPLAY.’ A MEMORABLE & REMARKABLE SUSPENSE DRAMA OF HUMAN STRIFE IN INDIA With greater excitement, suspense, scope and story warmth than “Bhowani Junction” and “King Of The Khyber Rifles”, there is every logic to sup- port the belief of all who have viewed it that Marcel Heilman’s production of “Flame Over India” will exceed the widespread popularity of those specta- cular dramas. This exciting, warm-hearted romantic spectacle deals with events in what is known as the North West frontier of India, a seething, vibrant, sun- scorched province, at the turn of the century; an area populated by some of the most rebellious, toughest, militant fighters the world has known. This gripping story, from a screenplay by Robin Estridge and directed magnificently by J. Lee Thompson, co-stars Lauren Bacall as the American Catherine Wyatt, governess to a prince; Kenneth More as Capt. Scott, a soldied dedicated to carrying out a seemingly impossible mission, and Herbert Lorn, a tough journalist with conflicting loyalties, all available to the highest bidder. Others playing featured roles are internationally outstanding performers like I. S. Johar as Gupta, the engineer who fearlessly nurses an antiquated locomotive, carrying precious human cargo through 300 trouble-torn miles; Ian Hunter as the man who stays behind, even though he is aware that a threat of death hangs over him; Wilfrid Hyde White as the pacifist secretary to the Governor, swept by continuous attacks on the train by rebels into a fury that gives an elusive enemy no quarter or mercy; Eugene Deckers as an enigmatic armament sales- man; six-year-old Govind Raja Ross as the Maha- rajah’s son, Prince Kishnan, whom the rebels are determined to kill, for he is destined to be the re- ligious and political leader of hundreds of thou- sands of Hindus, and Ursula Jeans as the Gov- ernor’s wife. Briefly, this memorable screenplay, wholly filmed in the locales of the story, deals with a virtual hand- ful of faithfuls’ fight against time. Capt. Scott is sent by the British Governor to rescue the Prince and his American Governess when a rebellion breaks out among tribesmen, Moslems, hereditary enemies of the Maharajah, and his Hindu subjects. As Scott and his men take the Prince and Cather- ine Wyatt into the hills the attack is launched. The Maharajah, too proud to run away from his enemies, is killed.
