WAIPAWA REGENT
"The Gay Desperado'' — Saturday and Monday Nino Martini, world-famous singing staT of radio, opera and films, comes to the Waipawa Regent Theatre on Saturday afternoon and evening in PickfordLasky's sparkling romance, liTh© Gay Desperado." Ida Lnpino and Leo Carillo are featured in support of the handsome tenor. "The Gay Desperado" completely discards the conventional plot formula for iilms starring famous singers and tells a fast-moving yomantic story of a gay and glamorous Mexican bandido who sings his way out of the succession of difficulties, saving his lifo and winning the girl by the magic of his voice. "The Gay Desperado" is a fiesta of fun and glorious melody. Here is a formula for the musical photoplay that brings melody, comedy, and dramatio excitement into harmonious union. It gives ample scope for Nino Martini'* enchanting voice and engaging presence while inspiring a rich and hilarious burlesque that could stand verv well by itself as entertainment. The supports include the Walt Disney silly symphony in colour, "Thru' a Mirror." Seats may be reserved at Mc-Gregor's.
