REGENT THEATRE
“DIVE-BOMBER.” “Dive-Bomber,” the new picture which the Regent Theatre will screen tonight and tomorrow, is filmed in magnificent technic olour. This outstanding picture tells the story of the American Navy’s unsung heroes who fly more for science than for glory. The tremendously high altitude, the terrific rate of speed at which they descend upon their targets makes dive-bombing the most hazardous type of flying. “Dive-Bomber” co-stars Errol Flynn and Fred Mac Murray. Flynn plays the role of a flight sergeant who is out to overcome pilot fatigue, and develops a flying suit, similar to those used by deep.-sea divers, to relieve the pressure of high flying and divebombing. Mac Murray plays a seasoned pilot, who at first scoffs at the work Flynn is doing, but soon sees the imnortance of it and eventually makes the test flight that proves its worth. There is every tyne of fighting and observation plane used by the United States Navy, including the latest superbombers and fastest pursuit and interceptor nlanes. A matinee will be held on Saturday afternoon at which “The Sea Raiders” will be shown.
