REGENT THEATRE
“EASY LIVING’’ I A comedy which ranks among th® • smartest pictures of the year brings Jean Arthur, Edward Arnold and Ray Milland to the Regent Theatre in the highly-entertaining “Easy Living.” “Easy Living” is another of those smart, slightly bantering “Sophisticated” comedies. The story concerns a stenographer, played by Miss Arthur, who suddenly and unexpectedly gets a sable coat valued at 50,000 dollars and then has to live up to it. I Miss Arthur finds the town wide open to her. Hotels, fashionable shops, and dealers in expensive cars shower her with gifts. She becomes the talk of [the town. All doors are open to her. [There is only one drawback—she has not the money with which to buy herself a meal. She tries to sneak a meal and meets Milland, a millionaire playboy trying to make a living on his own as a bus boy. He is the son of Arnold, the man who unwittingly bestowed the coat on Miss Arthur, and with whom her name becomes linked as an aftermath. It is love at first sight.
