"Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back.
"Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back" will be screened at the Regent Theatre on Friday. Ever since Colman made the earlier talkie, "Bulldog Drummond," the film-go-ing public has retained a fond memory of the dashing Captain Hugh Drummond, whom he. first portrayed in that picture. Drummond also holds a fond place in Column's heart, for it was in the creation of this character that he scored his greatest screen hit. The 6tory of the new Drummond picture is based on the latest novel by H. C. McNeile, depicting the further exploits of the lovable adventurer. The excitement starts when Drummond attempts to unravel a baffling mystery for a beautiful young girl whose uncle disappears strangely in the London house of a sinister Oriental prince. Loretta Young portrays the girl, Warner Olarid plays the prince, Charles Butterworth is seen as Drummond's not quite bright friend Algy, and Una Merkel appears as the bride whom Algy deserts on her wedding night to dabble in mystery with Drnmmond. C. Aubrey Smith plays Inspector Nielson, of Scotland Yard.
