COMING TO-MORROW. “GREEN LIGHT.” “Green Light,” which comes to the Regent Theatre to-morow, when it will be shown at 2.15 p.m. and 8 p.m., is the screen version of a best-selling novel by Lloyd 0. Douglas. It stars Errol Flynn and Anita Louise. Flynn has the part of Dr. Paige, a scientist who almost gives his life in researches intended to alleviate human suffering. Sir Cedric Hardwicke appears as the saintly philosopher, Dean Harcourt. Margaret Lindsay portrays a devoted hospital nurse who loves ' Flynn, but has to surrender him. Henry O’Neill appears as a surgeon w T ho unwittingly forces Flynn into a long martyrdom. Walter Abel was especially engaged to enact the role of Flynn’s friend and fellow scientist. “Green Light” unfolds a stirring story of heroism, sacrifice and love, complicated by misunderstandings which at length are happily cleared up. Lavishly produced, the picture is reported to have made a strong appeal to audiences in other centres. Reserves at Perry’s, ’phone 2496.
