J^ FAN FARE fes^ "T^^T weekly column of I § V' t ■ gossip on outstand" I me new films. I _ >■ IITITCHCRAFT is a subject that faai TT a strange fascination for most peo-^ pie. Many books have been written about , it, yet not until "Maid o£ Salem" has it been used as the theme of a motion picture. This' Paramount production, the at--1 traction for the Regent, foTlQwing ''Green Light," is truly outstanding, as much" for" its gripping, exciting story of witchcraft persecutions in a Puritan colony in 1692 as for the brilliant acting of an exceptional cast headed by Claudette Colbert and Fred Mac Murray. PARAMOUNT put the full resources of their studios behind "Maid of Salem"; and because "Mutiny on' the Bounty" proved Frank Lloyd to be the ideal director for really bic,, out-of-the-ordinary films he was put in charge ol "Maid of Salem." * ♦ # YOU will be seeing many notable pictures at the Regent Theatre in coming weeks. After Errol Flynnin "Green Light" : (commencing to-morrow) and "Maid of Salem," there will be Elisabeth Bergiier's new British film "Dreaming Lips." Incidentally, her Majesty Queen Mary recently attended the premiere of this at the London Pavilion. Then there will be "Dark Journey," starring Conrad Veidt and Vivien Leigh (well described is the screen's most important "find" since Korda discovered Merle Oberon) ; 'Call It a Day," a brilliant domestic ™,T">dy which is certain to break records; .urn die technicolour film of James Oliver Cm-wood's great story "God's Countryl and the Woman." AN encounter between a German submarine and an English; Q-bqat, or "mystery/ship," is the sensational and thrilling climax of "Dart Journey." It is an unforgettable moment as the supposed tramp steamer, having Hired the submarine into close range, drops false sides and reveals powerful guns which blow ' the enemy out of the' water.
