GEOGRAPHY INSTITUTE STARTS FRENCH FILM

"Mistigri", Starting Today With Three Performances, Will Play Tomorrow And Wednesday for All Students

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The fourth in a series of French films will open this afternoon in the Institute of Geographical Exploration, 2 Divinity Avenue, at 2.30 o'clock when "Mistigri" is presented under the auspices of the Talking Films Committee in colaboration with the University Film Foundation.

Following the 2.30 o'clock performance, the picture will be shown at 5.15 and 8.30 o'clock. The same performances will be given tomorrow and Wednesday.

The movie is adapted from a story by Marcel Allard. The plot concerns itself with the vicissitudes of a young peasant girl, who is betrothed to a doctor, but runs away with her music teacher, and is married to him. The poverty of her husband, who is an opera singer, irks her and in despair over his jealousy she returns to the jilted doctor. Life with him is equally troublesome, and after another reversal of affections she again leaves him for the singer.

The feminine lead is played by Madeline Renaud, a popular young French actress and the jenne premiere of the Comedie Francaise, who takes the role of the vacillating wife.
