"SOCIETY LAWYER”
Motion picture fans who like their murder mysteries baffling will have something to outguess them at the Regent Theatre, where “Society Lawyer,” featuring Walter Pidgeon, Virginia Bruce and Leo Carrilo, will screen next Wednesday. This laughprovoking and thrilling murder mystery is superbly cast both in its major featured players as well as in its supporting cast. Walter Pidgeon was never seen to better advantage than in his role of lawyer-detective, in this film. Virginia Bruce sparkles with engaging vivacity and even discloses one of her hidden talents when she sings as a night-club entertainer. And Leo Carrillo is at his topmost form in a warmly human characterisation as a reformed gangster. “Navy Blue and Gold” is the associate feature. Ralph Forbes has been added to “Tower of London” cast as Henry Tudor.
