REGENT THEATRE

GRAC'E MOORE PREMIERE Doff your hats .to one of the most completely captivating pictnres ever to grace a local screen. At the Itegent Iheatre, Columbia's new Grace Moore vehicle, "When You're in Love," unfolds itself to the undisguised pleasure of its audience. Tlje film treats its audience to a story that would be .welcome even without music. It is a dehcious tale by that master of screen writers, Robert Riskin, who penned such comedy hits as "Mr Deeds Goes to Town" and "It Happened One Night." Witb this film, too, Riskin makes his dobut as a director, and he can well be proud. In a nutshell, the story is that of a vain Australian opera star who is forced to leave America when her passport expires. As she has set her heart on smging at a song festival in the States on a certain date, she goes to Mexico with a scheme for re-entering the country- The lpan doesn't work out, and as an alternative slie marries a contemptuous young American artist, whom she pays for the privelege. Wliat happens after that— and, jn fact, up to that time— is actually too funny for mere words. It must be seen.
