PAGE 4 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Wednesday, November 23, 1949 Movie Goers To View Tale Of 'Red Shoes' One of the world's most famous childhood stories will come to life before Lincoln movie audiences Dec. 6 to 11 with the screening of Hans Christian Andersen's story "The Red Shoes." The classic Andersen tale has been used as a basis for a screen play using unique technicolor with elaborate, . singing and ballet scones. The story has been put to double use by the co-writers, pro ducers directors Michel Powell and Emcric Fressberger. The basic plot has been adapted to a eon temporary romance which forms the overall film story, and in ad dition it is used in its original form as the parallel theme of a full-length ballet presented in its entirety as a "story-without-a-story." Produced in England the film is one of the longest in recent years, with a running time of two hours and 13 minutes. The film won Academy Award recognition for 1949 in three classifications best color art direction; best mu sical score for a dramatic picture, and best color set decoration.
