1 i Bing Crosby, as Hank Martin, the blacksmith from Connecticut, cheers bath to relieve his incurable cold. As a positive cure, Bing suggests up King Arthur ( Sir Cedric Hardwicke), as he takes a hot mustard foot the King stop living royally for awhile and try the life of a peasant. Si ONE of Paramount'* most enjoyable pictures is "A Connecticut Yankee In King Arthur's Court," with Bing Crosby in the title role. There is more Bing than Yankee and a good thing, too, for he's never been more appealing, more entertaining than as the village smithy of 1905 who suddenly finds himself living in 528 A.D. in the screwy court of King Arthur. V Left: Bings dons the armor for his joust with Sir Lancelot, played by Henry Wilcoxon. Oddly enough, Bing is winner. Right: Bing's arrival at the Court is punctuated by the spears of King Arthur's men. They believe him a monster. 38
