Mon., Tues., Apr. 19-4(I-<1 "I WANT TO LIVE” Starring Susan Hayward This is the performance for which she won an academy award as the best actress of 1958 for her portrayal of Barbara Graham. Her scream bounced against the steel walls as they dragged a twist ing, raging Barbara Graham back to her cell! They had just branded her a murderess -but this wasn’t the only mark that life and her under world "friends” had seared on her body. There were marks of the petty crimes she committed stains that all the police blotters in the country couldn’t soak up. It took courage to bring Bar bara Graham's real-life, real-shock story to the screen . . and the pro ducers of “I Want To Live” did not compromise with reality in ex posing life to film! Above all this story was lifted body and soul from life . . . with no whitewash or watering down and that is the hurricane force that makes this picture so different so important . . so great!
