ON THE SCREEN
REGENT
"No Greater Sin," the daring social film about a doctor's fight to overcome venereal disease and the conditions contributing to its spread in a defence boom town, opens at the Regent Theatre to-night. "No Greater Sin" hangs up a record for script writing. Pictures often huce as long as two years to produce, but Edward A. Golden, producer ol' "No Greater Sin," engaged a total of seven writers,, 'who worked on the story alone for two years. Golden told one writer after another., "Bring me a story that, pulls no punehe.and is still in good taste—a story that will drive home the importance of this problem without being a preachment.—a story that will wring the hearts of all who see itami will still entertain." The Regent Theatre's new feature attraction, starting on Saturday will be "The Maltese Falcon," starring Humphrey Bogart. Adapted, for the screen from the Dashiell Hammett novel, the film is a well-con-cocted mystery drama with a liberal dash of. comedy and romance.
