REGENT THEATRE.
GRAND DOUBLE FEATURE.
The love of a Hollywod extra girl and an. Italian singer who seeks film fame, is unfolded in “Music for Madame,” the musical romance starring Nino Martini and featuring lovely Joan Fontaine, which shows to-night at the Regent Theatre. This is the third screen musical in which the voice of the world-famous tenor is recorded for music-lovers throughout the world. It is spiced with musical thrills, comedy and drama. It is the story of a naive Italian singer who arrives in Hollywood, becomes involved with a pair of questionable characters, and is innocently mixed up in a daring gem robbery. A stirring drama of an industrial conflict between railroad and trucking lines, “California Straight Ahead,” also screens ..to-night. Louise Latimer plays the leading feminine role opposite John Wayne. Perilous scenes of giant trucks moving through treacherous mountain passes accentuate the drama of the narartive. Fighting snow storms and blizzards high in the Californian mountains, the trucks and men move on, setting the rousing tempo of the story.
