AMUSEMENTS
REGENT There opened to a capacity house on Saturday at the Regent Theatre, one of the greatest comedies ever to come from a British studio, “French Without Tears.” This sensational picture was produced in London by Paramount British and was directed by that • genius Anthony Asquith, who, it will be remembered, made “Pygmalion.” The stars of this unique romantic tale, which bristles with wit, are Ray Milland and Ellen Drew, and they are supported by Janine Darcy, Guy Middleton, Jim Gerald and Ronald Culver. 1 t TOWN HALL Suspense, thrilling gun-fights, hand-to-hand combats, comedy, tragedy and tender romance are interwoven in “The Marshall of Mesa City,” George O'Brien’s new outdoor movie, exciting saga of the courageout federal marshals who ended the riotous and bloody rule of frontier desperadoes during the days of the early West. It screens finally tonight at the Town Hall. The hectic romance between a news broadcaster and a pretty rival reporter while the pair are engaged in solving a murder mystery, is dramatically depicted in RKO Radio’s “Sued For Libel.” which is also screening-to-night at the Town Hall.
