A Film for the Family: Kismet

on BBC One London

Feature films selected for the occasion - at home with the family - this week starring Ronald Colman, Marlene Dietrich

An unscrupulous beggar's devilish plot to find a prince for his daughter's hand almost ends in disaster.
The beautiful costumes, enormous sets, and the magnificent technicolor photography make a gorgeous spectacle of this Arabian Nights-type fantasy, starring Ronald Colman and Marlene Dietrich.
(Philip Jenkinson writes on page 11)
