NEW REGENT
“CHASING RAINBOWS” Bessie Love and Charlie King play together again in “Chasing? Rainbows,” an original story for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer by Bess- Meredyth, which is now at the Resent Theatre. That should be welcome news to those who have seen this couple in “The Broadway Melody.” “Chasing Rainbows” is a backstage story with real human interest, and it is doubtful if there is another pair of players on the Cinema Coast who can handle a vehicle of this kind with such finesse and artistry as these two. Miss Love plays a, performer in a road show whose love affair with a fellow-player, Charlie King, progresses backstage, in cheap boarding-houses and en route from one night stand to onenight stand. There is singing and dancing in this picture, and plenty of comedy to keep things going at a fast clip. The exigencies of life in a road show provide an excellent and novel background for both the comic and tragic aspects of the moving story. Excellent supports are also being shown.
