REGENT THEATRE
TO-DAY'S ATTRAOTION. There is good strong screen fare on the bill at the Regent Theatre tonight with all the ingredients that combine for popularity. "His Brother's Wife," produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, with W. S. "Van Dyke directing, brings Barbara Stanwyck and Robert Taylor to the screen in a spectacular romance. That alone is of striking significance. Jean Hersholt is fea.tured as a veteran explorer and adventurer in the far and dangerous places of the tropical jungle. Joseph Calleia scores in another of his suave bad-man roles. Yan Dyke's tradition is superb. Of all the competent directors in Hollywood. none could have moulded this materitt. so artfully as Van Dyke. The daring story of a young scientist who ventures into the jungle to find the enre for a dreaded malady and returns to the realisation that the woman he loves is his brother's wife provides a dramatic vehicle for tbese distinguished stars.
