Lux Radio Theatre: Remember the Night

Lux presents Hollywood. The Lux Radio Theatre brings you Gene Arthur and Fred McMurray with Bula Bondi in Remember the Night. And as special guests, Bob Hope and Rita Hayworth. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. Cecil B. DeMille.

Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. This is Christmas Week, and our holiday present to you is the play called Remember the Night. It's all tied up in a glittering, glamorous package, and the gayest decorations of all are those two bright stars, Gene Arthur and Fred McMurray.

Christmas is a time when all wanderers think of home, a time when we appreciate most the warmth and the gladness of home. And remember the night, adapted from the Paramount screen hit, is the story of what home meant to one man and one girl at Christmas time.

The man is a prosecuting attorney, and he's trying to send the girl to prison. But Christmas calls a strange truce in their conflict, and throws a magic spell over them both. You'll hear Fred McMurray as the prosecutor.

He played that part in the picture. And Gene Arthur will be the girl on trial. Their story has more spirit of Christmas in it than almost any modern play I've read. It's told in a new way and a sure way to our hearts.

Remember the night is a story of what makes the wheels go round in American life. life, ordinary American life, a way of life that won't be stopped by anything. This national theatre we're proud to say is part of that life, and so is the product that keeps this theatre going, Lux Flakes, which also helps to keep your household going year
