“S. A. Mann-Brand,” the German-made film glorifying the brutalities of the Hitler government, was presented at no central theatre in New York City because of public protest organized by the New York Film and Photo League and the Anti-Nazi Federation of Greater New York, according to an announcement by David Platt and N. Durig, officers of the two groups.
The picture, produced by the Bavarians Films, Inc., is now running at the Yorkville Theatre.
