MAYFAIR THEATRE
“Santa Fe Trail,” an Errol FlynnOlivia de Havilland co-starring picture, screened at the Mayfair Theatre yesterday, brings to life some of the most notable figures of America’s history. Dealing with the turbulent days of the era just preceding the Civil War, it is said to outshine the thrills of “Dodge City” and “The Sea Hawk.” Flynn portrays Jeb Stuart, famed cavalry commander, Ronald Reagan is cast as General George Custer, and Raymond Massey plays the fanatical John Brown—three names that ring out of history’s pages. Olivia de Havilland is seen as a feminine “Kit Carson,” who captures the heart of young Jeb Stuart. An hilarious comedy, “National Barn Dance,” is the supporting feature.
