REGENT THEATRE.

LAST SHOWING OF “SONG OF THE WEST.” In “Song of the West,” the 100 per cent, natural colour, singing, talking, dancing, Yitaphone picture in technicolour, which is showing for the last time at the Regent to-night, Warner Bros, have a true epic, which sweeps the spectator off his feet, not only by the medium of motion pictures, but by sound, by melody and singing, and by the gorgeousness of natural colours taken against the magnificent background of the great out of doors West. John Boles with Vivienne Segal are the featured'.players with a supporting cast of a hundred voices. “MARRIED IN HOLLYWOOD.” In the palmiest days of musical comedv or light operetta more than one song hit that lingered in memory was, unusual. In “Married in Hollywood,” a Fox Movietone musical romance, which is showing at the Regent on Thursday and Friday, there are nine distinctive song hits, one of which “Dance Away the Night,” is destined to surpass in popularity “Th e Merry Widow Waltz” of a generation ago. The same composers have evolved another tuneful number, “Until One Comes Along,” which will run “Dance Away the Night” a close race for popularity. And still a third entrancing number is “Deep in Love,” with music by Oscar Straus and lyrics by Harlan Thompson. “Married in Hollywood” is based on the operetta by Oscar Straus and has a big cast of popular players, including J. Harold Murray and Norma Terris.
