PFA projectionist Arthur McMillan presents tonight's features. Projectionist's Choice evenings at PFA give us the opportunity to recognize our excellent projectionists, whose skill allows the Archive to show rare and old films as they were meant to be shown: with the best possible print-quality control, and under the best possible viewing conditions.

The Forest Rangers
"Put a producer outdoors with a Technicolor camera and before you can say pyromaniac you have an arsonist on your hands...." (N.Y. Times). "Blazing Technicolor" is how the ads described The Forest Rangers, and for once they were right: set in timber country, the film is a color delight, climaxing in a fiery holocaust that would make any producer proud. "A film about women who play with fire"...and the men who douse it: Paulette Goddard and Susan Hayward match wits and frontier adaptability for the big prize, Ranger Fred MacMurray, who is too preoccupied with a series of mysterious fires to notice. Good support characterizations from Eugene Pallette, Regis Toomey and others keep the dialogue crackling.
