The laurel wreath of Olympia is the “Oscar” of Hollywood, and there is a difference only of field between the Grand Imperial Master Potentate of a fraternal order and the winner of a Pulitzer Prize. Such honors do not come lightly. Regardless of the dissenting opinions of those who would adjudge another more worthy, to be singled out from one’s contemporaries is a matter of high tribute. Therecis; today-at<the: 2.2... Theatre, a motion picture called “All The King’s Men,” made by Columbia Pictures from the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Robert Penn Warren. Produced and directed by Robert Rossen, the film is a gallant effort whose like may not come this way again. A motion picture based upon America, rich with the beauty and meanness, ambition and warmth that makes up this nation, “All The King’s Men” is a tapestry of sheer excitement. The theme is one which has been discussed on this page, and on the pages of every newspaper in the land, over the air and across the dinner tables of America. It is a part of the life we live, and a vital part. “All The King’s Men” won a Pulitzer Prize as a novel; it deserves the highest possible honors as a motion picture. You should see it.
