MONTGOMERY And the Sth Army. THE MOST EAGERLY' AWAITED PICTURE IN YEARS. The coiM|plete motion picture record of one of the world’s greatest battles, the battle which smashed the oncc-proud Nazi hordes back over 14,000 miles of blood-drenched desert sands. Read what the critics say: “Most remarkable full-length film of the entire war. ’ ’ —Dorothy Thompson. ‘ ‘ Sensational Thriller. ’ ’ Walter Winchell. “The Rout of Rommel in Africa becomes the greatest war film ever made.’’ —New York Mirror. A FILM EVERYONE SHOULD SEE. Not a studio production, but an actual record of the fighting, filmed in the desert, in the air and on the water, by men who themselves took part in the achievements graphically shown. “Desert Victory’’ touches the imagination. No one who has not taken an actual part in desert operations fully understands the hardships suffered by the troops involved. No one who sees this picture, though, can fail to understand why the Eighth Army was Victorious —or why there will be other victories ahead.’’ —Egyptian Mail. (Recommended by Censor for Adults).
