Screenland Hnnnr Page Three rousing cheers to Noel Coward for his magnificent motion picture, "In Which We Serve." As producer, director, author, and star, he stands alone as a one-man marvel of movie entertainment. His film is a tremendously stirring tribute to the gallant men of the British Navy in this war John Mills and Kay Walsh as the young lovers are heartwarmingly real. All the acting in Coward's fine film is of fhe highest order, worthy of its inspiring theme. Noel Coward himself plays the Captain of the destroyer Torrin, the ship whose fortunes the film follows from the laying of her keel to her sinking in the battle off Crete. The famous star-producer gives o fine and sensitive performance, proving as wise to the ways of the movie camera as to the technique of the theater. The still above shows three of the leading actors, as members of ship's company, in the harrowing scenes following the bombing of H.M.S. Torrin. United Artists Release 16
