rri tt## From Ci ^ The Hollywood Set it * 0( By MARY MARATHON Fans, if you're in the mood to "get away from it all," I'm the gal who can tell you how to do it! It doesn't have to cost you more than the price of a movie theatre ticket, a ticket that'll take you to exotic, mysterious India when you see "Thunder in the East" — and to the lush and colorful banana country when you see "Tropic Zone." * * * Just in time for that January pick-up, you'll be able to magic-carpet-yourself via "Thunder in the East" to a fabulously -decorated Maharajah's palace to the teeming market-places of Ghandahar where evil and good rub shoulders, and where the man Alan Ladd portrays is right at home, living the kind of exciting adventures he had in "Saigon," "China" and "Calcutta." Ladd's a gun-runner in "Thunderln the East," and while he mixes with some pretty rough characters, star-wise he's in real solid company. Deborah Kerr, Charles Boyer and Corinne Calvet share top billing with him. With two irresistible lovelies like Deborah and Corinne in the same picture, Ladd doesn't stand a chance of avoiding romantic entanglement, not that he'd want to. But I'm going on record to action-lovers that there's action in the field of romance, too! * * * The story centers around Ladd's efforts to sell a plane-load of guns and ammunition to the Maharajah of Ghandahar, who is momentarily expecting attack by outlaw tribesmen. Ladd didn't figure on Charles Boyer, who portrays the Maharajah's peace loving secretary and who insists the only way to meet force is with love and kindness. Boyer locks the guns away and when trouble starts, the small British colony is really up against it. There's a lot of edge-of-the-seat excitement in "Thunder in the East" that typifies adventure in far-away places, and I know it will give you the feeling of being right in the middle of one of today's hottest action spots. For a different — and torrid! — change of scene, make a note to catch "Tropic Zone" where the action (and there's ple"+" ~" "" ' plantation in Puerto Barrancas.
