AMUSEMENTS

Opera House “NOTORIOUS SOPHIE LANG” TO-NIGHT. A thoroughly modern and entertaining detective story, the chronicle of a charming, beautiful girl, who singlehandedly outwits both the police and her rivals, Paramount’s “The Notorious Sophie Lang” comes to the Opera House to-night, with Gertrude Michael, Paul Cavanagh, Leol Errol, Arthur Byron and Alison Skipworth in the featured roles. It is a fast-moving romance of a beautiful girl crook who outwits the police of several countries, boats her rivals at their own. game, and steals the hearts of her many admirers. “LIVES OF A BENGAL LANCER” “Hollywood’s most costly spectacle, “The Lives of a Bengal Lancer” comes for a short season of four days to the Opera House, after four years of unremitting effort in its production. Featuring Gary Cooper, Franehot Tone, Richard Cromwell and Sir Guy Standing in the principal roles “The Lives of a Bengal Lancer” is a stirring, colourful and action-crammed story of the exploits and adventures of England’s colonial soldiers in India. Regent Theatre ‘‘BY YOUR LEAVE” To-night will be the final screening of the gay comedy, which centres about the surprising results of a martial holiday, “By Your Leave.” DOUBLE STAR—TO-MORROW. Another of the Regent special weekend double feature programmes commence at to-morrow’s matinee. If you like thrilling, mystery romance RKORadio’s magnificent production. of “Dangerous Corner,” will give you something to remember and talk about. Adapted from J. B. Priestley’s notable play and the novel, “Dangerous Corner” introduces a new story structure treatment. This revolutionary twist, plus excellent actin? contributions makes this unusual production an outstanding entertainment. The theme

deals with what might happen if certain seemingly inconsequential events occurred to make people bare the hidden secrets about their own lives and their loves. Quite the most outstanding of Jack Hulbert’s many breezy* and laughable comedies is his latest film for Gainsborough. “The Camels Are Coming”, the other feature. Jack has scored a big success in the past as a policeman and a sailor, and now in “The Camels Are Coming” he becomes SquadronLeader Jack Campbell, arriving in Egypt in charge of ton aeroplanes bought by the Egyptian Government to assist in fighting ever-active smugglers. The fun begins straightaway with the opening scenecs and continues with a crescendo movement to the climax which is a positive riot.
