REGENT THEATRE
SATURDAY'S ATTRACTION. Tliere is good strong screen fare on the bill at the Regent Theatre to-mor-row, with all the ingredients t.Uat combine for popularity. ' "His Brother's Wife," produced by Metro-GDldwyu-Mayer, with W. S. Van Dyke direeting. brings Barbara Stanwyck and Robert Taylor to the screen in a spectacular romanee. That alone i'S of striking significance.^ Jean Hersholt is featured as a veteran explorer and adveDturer tn tlie far and dangerous places of the tropical jungle. Joseph Calleia. scores in another of his suave bad-man roles. Van Dylte's tradition is superb. Of all tlie competent directors in Hollywood, aone could have moulded this material so artfully as Van Dyke. The daring story of a young scientist -who vcntures into the jungle to iind the curc for a dreaded raalady and returns to the realisation that the woman he loves is his brother's wife provides a drainatic vehicle for these distinguished stars. Anna Sten To-night "A Woman Alone" concludes at tlie Regent Theatre to-night. This is a stirring pictnre.of Tsarist days in Russia with Anna Sten and Henry Wilcoxon in the chief parts.
