By MARY DEPTUCK’

MONTREAL (CP) — Official re-
ports and testimony claim she was
brutally murdered along with’ her
parents and four siblings sometime
during the night of July 16, 1918, while
in detention in Siberia.

Grand Duchess Anastasia, young-
est daughter of Czar Nicholas II and
Empress Alexandra Feodorvna. of
Russia, is said to have escaped death in
a:-volley of gunfire from her Red Army
executioners by fainting, only to revive
and be fatally stabbed by bayonets.

But American author-actor'Peter
Kurth is convinced that an 82-year-old
woman living in Charlottesville; Va.,
who is notorious after 47 years of
unsuccessful attempts and vicious
court battles to prove her identity, is
really Anastasia Nicolaievna.

So do the dozens of witnesses that
Kurth, 80, cites in his first book Ana-
stasia: The Riddle of Anna Anderson, a
biography which took more than 10
years to complete and which, for the
first time since the beginning of her
ordeal, provides exhaustive and con-
vincing documentation supporting the
claims of the alleged netvess, to the
Romanov dynasty.

The 450-page hardesves book,
published three weeks ago in the
United States, is scheduled to be re-
leased in Canada this week.

Author Peter Kurth says
he can prove Anna

Kurth said that after Anastasia

comparing photographs of young Ana-

stasia and the claimant, Specifically of

photographic studies of Anastasia to
support their case against the claimant,
he said, but the new study showed the
documentation had been based on the:
use of an inverted negative: Experts
had been comparing a right ear with a
left.

REJECT APPEAL
But by the time the latest. proof
was provided in 1977, Germany's

Supreme Court had turned down a.

second appeal by her supporters, and
Anastasia, who had only grudgingly
consented to testify at the trials, no
longer sustained any interest in the
case.

“I am ill of dirt," she said after
being informed of the new evidence. “I
am ill of constant, constant questions.”

Anastasia's story, as related by
Kurth, is a nightmare which begins
with the family massacre, an event
which in itself has never been sub-

stantiated since no human remains _

were ever recovered.

Anastasia at 82 is crippled with
arthritis and still bears scars from
what doctors have described as bay-
onet and bullet wounds. She claims she
‘was secretly rescued by a Red Army
guard, Alexander, Tschaikovsky, who

“There were times in the course of
(writing the book) when I really
thought I must be out of my, mind,”
Kurth said in an interview while in
Montreal to promote the book and
meet with officials at the World-Film
Festival to negotiate possible: film
rights.

“I know her story well enough to
know no one had really gotten anything
but grief (from Ce involvement with
Anastasia).

“But Somsthing kept me going.I
think it was the certainty she had been
misused. That she was not the vulgar
impostor people said she was.”

At the forefront of the
festival's femme fatales are
the French ‘— actresses
Fanny Ardant and Isabelle

 Adjani. . Ardant personifies

passionate intensity in the
Belgian-Italian co-production
Benvenuta. The movie is
entered in the. festival's
official competition.

Based on the novel La con-
fession anonyme by Belgian
author Suzanne ' Lilar,

is the true story
of an obsessional, almost
religious love affair between
a young Belgian pianist
played by Ardant and a
Neopolitan judge many years
her senior played by Italy's
Vittorio Gassnan.

The same actress is seen at
the festival in Francois
Truffaut's comic Hitcheock-
ian thriller Vivement dim-
anche as a warm and breezy
heroine.

Adjani steps out of her
typically cool screen charac-
ter in Jean Beckers’ torrid
melodrama L'Ete meurtrier
in which she plays Elle,. the
vulgar village tease who is
really a deranged avenger.

In the more unusual, voy-
euristic thriller Mortelle ran-
donnee, a detective (played
by Michel Suerrault) pursues
a beautiful young woman
(Lucie Brentano, as we first
meet her) across Europe and
observes her disposing of a
slew of rich fiances and
whoever else stands in her
path.
