Regent.—The thrill of the six-master in full sail, the fascination of turbulent ocean or the blue lagoon, and the human drama and colour of the period when ships sailed the seven seas never fail to vitalise any sea story produced and directed by Frank Lloyd. But in Universal’s “This Woman is Mine, now at the Regent, his shipboard action, of course, is splendid and the climax, when a fur trading ship is captured by Indians, full of excitement and spectacle. Majestic.—A double programme that is outstanding in action, adventure, chills and thrills is headed by “Torpedo Boat, an exciting story of Uncle Sam’B dive bombers of the sea, starring Richard Arlen and Jean Parker. The associate film, Among the Living,” is a well-produced super-shocker starring Albert Dekker and Susan Hayward. The serial is "Jungle Girl,” chapter 8. King’s.—One of the most notable screen plays in years is now showing at the King s Theatre, George Bernard Shaws Major Barbara,” which glitters with Shavian satire and is played by one of tile greatest casts ever assembled for any one picture in England. The principle roles are played by Wendy Hillier and Rex Harrison.
