THE REGENT.
“BAD MAN OF BRIMSTONE.” “The Bad Man of Brimstone,” will be finally shown tonight. DEANNA DURBIN TOMORROW. Coming to the Regent 'tomorrow for an extended season of one week is “Mad About Music,” which portrays the loveable Deanna Durbin. Associated with her are Herbert Marshall, Arthur Teacher and Gail Patrick. The producers of “Mad About Music” have boldly thrown Deanna into a story that demands the utmost in acting talent, and 15-year-old Deanna handles the difficult assignment with ease and assurance. As entertainment, “Mad About Music” excels either of her previous pictures, although it departs entirely in theme and structure from “Three Smart- Girls” or “100 Men and a Girl.” Her new production is almost entirely comedy-drama, but with a story that lends itself to several highly emotional passages, heart-gripping in their intensity, bringing tears in their wake much as did the finale of “100 Men and a Girl.” The tears are immediately followed by comedy sequences, forcing smiles. It is this procession of smiles and tears which makes “Mad About Music” a great picture.
The box plan is now at the Regent only.
