All My Sons

Lux presents Hollywood. Leave Your Brothers Company, the makers of Lux Toilet Soap, bring you the Lux Radio Theatre, starring Bert Lancaster, Edward Arnold, Scott Brady and Anne Pearce in All My Sons. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. William Kealy.

Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight we bring you a turbulent drama that has its counterpart in many American homes, that of a father who has the human desire to give his sons everything money can buy.

But in making that wish come true in this particular instance, his love for his family turns to greed for money. Now this is the theme of all my sons, a smash hit on Broadway and later a successful motion picture from the studios of Universal International.

It's a play with brilliant acting opportunities, and we have an all-star cast tonight to perform it. First, that dynamic box office attraction, Bert Lancaster in his original role. Then, our old friend Edward Arnold as the father, and Scott Brady, one of your newer favorites, and for feminine, beauty and charm and pierce.

Today is Mayday, a day when beauty queens become a national symbol. And of course, the national symbol for beauty care is Lux Toilet Soap. American beauties have known for years that there is no better way to guard lovely complexions than with Luxo facials.

Now all my sons, starring Bert Langcaster as Chris Keller, Edward Arnold as Joe Keller, Scott Brady as George, and Anne Pierce as Annie. Toward the end of the war, a tragic scandal broke in a small Midwestern city.

A machine job delivered a quantity of defective cylinders to the air force. As a result, 21 pilots crashed at their den. The owners of the plant were put on trial. One went to prison. The other, Joe Keller, was exonerated.
