PALACE THEATRE “THE CRASH" The hectic days of post-war stock gambling’, tho spectacular crash of the stock market, the ruin of the idle rich who went down with it, are depicted dramatically for the first time on the notion picture screen in "Tho ■ Crash.” There are few surer signs of screen success than for a star to pick the same leading man for two pictures in succession. This is the signal honour that has been accorded George Brent who is once more playing the leading role opposite Ruth Chatterton in her second First National production, "The Crash,” which will be shown at the Palace theatre to-day. Against a colourful background is vividly told the story of a young couple who have made a fortune in the market, only to lose it, liko thousands of others, in the debacle that, ended a nation’s gambling for quick riches. Ruth Chatterton as the stockbroker's wife, and George Brent, in the role of the rapidly rising broker, carry, the burden of itho drama, which sweeps from the. pent-houses .of Park Avenue to the tropical latitudes of Bermuda and back to the metropolis before the events that engulf the husband and wife, finally run. their course. Surrounding Afisjj Chatterton and George Brent, who Is her husband, is an exceptionally strong cast consisting of Hardie Albright, Henry Kolker/Ivan Simpson, Paul Cavanaugh, Bo is Tucker, Helen Vinson, Edith Kingdon and Virginia Hammond. A brilliant array of supports include newsreels, a short mystery featuring Margot Grahame, entitled "Better of Warning,” and a Colourtone Review entitled “Pirates.” Plans are on view at the Central Booking Office, ’phone 7173, or at tho theatre after 0 p.m., ’phone 6050, . REGENT THEATRE "OPERATOR 13” Out of the pages of history has come another great motion picture theme to thrill theatre audiences with one of the finest romances seen upon the screen in recent years. This time it is "Operator 13,” the exciting Robert W. Chambers story which M e tro-G old wy n - .May or-Cos-mopolitan presents as Marlon Davies’ newest starring vehicle and which comes to the Regent theatre to-day. Yet it is not, in a sense, a war story. It is a gripping love story for which the Civil War’ serves only as a background. It is the story of an all-powerful love affair involving a beautiful woman spy of the Union army and a gallant spy of the Confederate forces. As Gail Roveless, the Federal spy who is sent into the Southern lines to destroy the most dangerous spy of the Confederacy, Miss Davies contributes her finest dramatic performance of her eventful screen career. Gary Cooper, the Southern spy, equally surpasses all bis former screen roles as the man whom Miss Davies sets out to destroy—and with whom she falls in love. The masterful direction of the picture was conducted by Richard Boleslavsky, former noted director and actor of the Moscow Art Theatre who has been re- 1 sponsible for such entertaining pictures as "Pvasputin and the Empress” and "Men in White.” Tho story is a story of spies, of espionage and intrigue, ami throws a new historical light upon the most dramatic of all America’s conflicts —the Civil War. Of comedy, there is plenty, supplied by Ted Healy in tho rolo of a spy masquerading as a medicine man, A. secondary romance, one of the
