METRO'S GUTS!<br />

A letter from the M. P. Herald, Issue of Nov. 4, 1950<br />

To THE Editor:<br />

Metro had the guts to release four of its<br />

top-budgeted productions during the usual<br />

dull period in the dead heat of the summer<br />

season. It has been a custom for producers<br />

to normally withhold such attractions for<br />

the cooler weather. But Metro has shown<br />

the way and proved that an outstanding picture<br />

can beat the heat, television or whatever<br />

other factors that have been responsible<br />

for the drop in box office receipts.<br />

The pictures were ''Annie Get Your<br />

Gun," 'Tather of the Bride,'' ''Duchess of<br />

Idaho" and 'Three Little Words," which<br />

were a much-needed shot in the arm and<br />

made you proud to be an exhibitor.—A^.<br />

DEL ROSSO, Cameo Theatre, Watertown,<br />

Conn.
