A Swedish film of the kind that played the Avon and Art cinemas in Providence. Some nudity but NOT porn. Description from IMDb: “The young beautiful sisters Lilly and Ragni are motherless. They live with their father, a horse dealer. During a horseback ride, Lilly and Ragni come to a pond of water lilies. They undress and swim naked. A local watches them play.”

Should be LOEW’S Paramount, not “Lowe’s”.

You can see the Paramount toward the bottom, with the marquee still visible as well as the backdrop tower behind the stage.

The Paramount was sometimes a de-facto art house, since there was no full-time art house in Newport. Often, in the 1950s, an art-house feature could be scheduled for the bottom of a double bill.

Both good films, but a very strange pairing of an Italian soaper with a Hollywood musical.

The theatre closed in 1960; the marquee was moved in 1972 (see another photo).

This was Robert Bresson’s first feature, 1943, originally titled “Les anges du péché.” Seems peculiar that the director’s name is not mentioned in the ad.
