REGENT THEATRE
“TUGBOAT* ANNIE SAILS AGAIN.' Among the few good things that have come out of Japan are a number of proverbs, one of which says that, if you take a bucket of water out of the ocean, you can’t expect to find the hole still there. When Marie Dressier died the world said that Tugboat Annie had died too. But no the hole has been filled by Marjorie Rambeau, a rascally Amazon as lovable as the famous Marie. “Tugboat Annie Sails Again,” will be shown tonight and filmgoers will- still retain a soft spot for the rip-roaring friendship of Annie and Bullwinkle. Incidentally this is a Warner Brothers film. Annie is still the captain of the most disreputable craft on the sea; hei heart is still in the right place and her tongue can still lick lackadaisical Bullwinkle into some sort of shape. Alan Hale plays the part made famous by Wallace Beery and Ronald Reagan and Jane Wyman round off the cast of a comedy that is more than the usual froth and bubble. The supporting picture is “Home in Wyomin,’ ” with Gene Autry and Smiley Burnette in the chief roles.
