REGENT THEATRE

“THE GREAT GARRICK.” “The Great Garrick,” starring Brian Aherne, Olivia de Havilland and Edward Everett Horton will ■be finally shown at the Regent Theatre tonight. SATURDAY’S ATTRACTIONS. The fourth of the now famous “Judge Hardy Family” series of talking pictures, “Love Finds Andy Hardy” will be shown at the Regent Theatre on Saturday at 2.15 and 8 p.m. The; undoubted appeal of these chapters in the life of a typical family lies in the fact that they deal with people and surroundings that arouse sympathetic understanding because they are familiar to all of us. Mickey Rooney is excellent as Andy. Lewis Stone and Cecilia Parker (Marian Hardy) complete the famous group. Judy Garland appears as “Betsy,” a wise and pretty miss who helps Andy out of the troubles that fall upon him when he finds himself pledged to take two girls to the bhll of the season. A good supporting programme includes an Australian newsreel; “Buried Treasure,” a hilarious cartoon featuring the “Captain and the Kids,” John Silver; a beautiful James Fitzpatrick travel talk picture in technicolour of the historic island of Madeira; and an interesting special feature relating, in serio-comic vein, the story of the discovery and application of anaesthetics.
