THE REGENT.
“THE AWFUL TRUTH.” Without doubt one of the best modern comedies coming from American studios for a long time. “The Awful Truth” will be the Easier attraction at the Regent Theatre, commencing today. Irene Dunne once “went wild” as Theodora, and in this Columbia picture an extraordinarily successful adaptation by Vina Delmar of a play by Arthur Richman, she is every bit as full of joyous nonsense as she was in “Theodora Goes Wild.’* With her are Cary Grant and Ralph Bellamy. The attractive, dignified Miss Dunne joins with Cary Grant in uttering “awful truths” in the heartiest manner. “The Awful Truth” has been made for laughter. Much of the hilarity comes from the clever dialogue between Cary Grant and Irene Dunne. “The Awful Truth” provides a grand role for Ralph Bellamy. He is the man whom Irene Dunne thinks she might marry. The shorts are also outstanding. including two colour subjects, a Rhapsody and Cartoon, a sports thrill and latest overseas news. An extra matinee will be held on Easter Monday at 2.15.
