HILARIOUS COMEDY
“WOMAN CHASES MAN." A hilarious, eccentric comedy of mixed relations and millionaires is “Woman Chases Man," screening next Wednesday at the Regent Theatre. It is the latest and in some respects the most outstanding of. the “crazy” films which have proved so popular with theatre goers. Pure farce and clevei cross talk round off a film which is entertaining from start to finish. The outstanding star of the picture is (Miriam Hopkins, whom it becomes hard to imagine as the picture proceeds as the glamorous "Beck> Sharp.” She is one of those rarest oi all actresses, one who can score with equal effect in romantic drama and in straight comedy. Her performance as the girl architect who sets out to carve or chisel herself a job from the heart of a presumed millionaire is the highlight of the picture. The "millionaire” is Charles Winninger, who plays one of those parts for which he is famous. Joel McCrea is also successful in the role of the young millionaire.
