REGENT THEATRE.
"STRANGERS.IN LOVE."
Aided by the -fact that beinj one o£. twins h<i resembles hie brother physically, Buddy Drake, tho hero of "Strangers in Love," which heads the new bill at tho Regent Theatre and which was witnessed by a delighted audience on Saturday, is hampered by much ignorance of his brother's affairs v. hen he setß out to impersonate him after Ins sudden death from heart failure. Very ruituially there are complications, the rnajotHy of which are of a highly humorous chariiticr; there are some not quite so humorous but which ate full of dramatic interest. Tho ckarac-tris of the two brothers are repretviited by Frederic March, who so successfully took tho parts of Dr. Jekyll and Mr I'yue in the talking picture version of that .-tory. Kay Francis plays- opposite March, and othei3 who contribute to the fun and the dramatic interest are Juliette Compton, Stuart Erwin, and George Barbier. Included in the supporting items are interesting scenes cf the Kucharistic .Conference, featuring the arrival of the Papal legate in Dublin.
