REGENT THEATRE
"THE STREET SINCER'S RETURN" "The Street Singer's Lleturn" ocreens finally to-night. The much-heralded "Good Earth" acreens at the Regent Theatre to-mor-row. To say that ifc is a great picture is not enough. It is the talking screen's most outstanding masterpiece. Co-starred in "The Good Earth" are Paul Muni and Luise Rainer. In 1936, both won the individual acting awards from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Together, their performances defy equal. Brieliy, this picture tells the story of a man's battle for sustenance from tbe soil, with his wife beside him. Wapg (portrayed by Paul Muni) is a farmer. With his wife O'Lan (Luise Bainer) he rears his family despite the cruel setbacks from Nature, and the man-made strife of a bloody revolution. His struggle for existenee, and ultimate acquisition of riches, may be the parallel of any one of us here to-day. In the simplioity of "The Good Earfh" in its application to every mau lies the secret of its greatness.
