THE KING’S. “Stormy Weather,” a Ben Travers farce, presenting Tom Walls and Ralph Lynn in the leading roles, is to he screened finally at the King’s Theatre to-night. Lively entertainment is the keynote of this film and the sparkling English dialogue and swift-moving action makes it one of irresistible appeal. The story is comically absurd and its bizarre underworld settings and atmosphere are departures from the usual Travers’ farces. Yvonne Arnaud and Robertson Hare have prominent roles.
The second attraction, “Mimi,” is mi adaption from the famous play, “La lie de Boheme,” and features Gertrude Lawrence and Douglas Fairbanks, jnnr.
THE REGENT. Laurel and Hardy’s latest fulllength comedy, “Bonnie Scotland,” shows finally at the Regent tonight. Through an inadvertanco the principals become members of a regiment of Scotch Highlanders sent to India for foreign duty, and of course are embroiled in numerous hilarious and thrilling adventures. Romance finds a goodly place in this
iilm, with June Lang and William Jannoy interpreting the roles oil lovers whose fortunes do not follow the lines of least resistance. Scotland and India arc the locales for the story, and through seven reels there runs an almost continuous series of laughs punctuated occasionally by a sigh.
