Lux presents Hollywood. Lux Radio Theatre brings you Claudette Colbert and Van Hefflin in Tomorrow is Forever. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. William Keeling. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen.
One year ago this coming Wednesday, America and the freedom loving people of the world, celebrated D.E. Day, the first step in the conquest of oppression. I think we realize then, as now we know so clearly, that the aftermath of war is marked with a difficult readjustment and unusual problem. And I know of no problem more unusual and challenging,
more fraught with emotional suspense than that which forms the theme of international pictures current hit Tomorrow Is Forever, starring Claudette Colbert and Van Heffman. Claudette appearing in the role that she created so superbly on the screen.
On this anniversary of freedom, I'd like to read you a letter from a native of one of the liberated countries. She writes, when my beloved Denmark was set free last year and contact by mail was re-established, I at once began to send packages home to my relatives.
Things they hadn't seen during those five dark years of occupation. And of course, in all those packages, 56 to date, we put luck toilet soap. I wish you could see the letters of thanks that we received.
You'd realize how much it means to those good people of Denmark to receive your fine brother. And when I go back home for a visit next month, I shall have to make room in my baggage for luck, toilet soap.
We sincerely appreciate this friendly letter. Here's the first act of tomorrow is forever, starring Claudette Colbert as Elizabeth and Van Heflen as John, later known as Kessler, with Richard Long in his original screen role as Drew, Natalie Wood as Margaret, and Gail Gordon as Larry.
