theatre royal. ■ 9 —— "SINNERS IN THE SUN." . 1 "Sinners in. the Sun," a romantic drama played, against a scintillating background of •wealth and beauty, will be the next feature at the Theatre Royal, beginning to-mor-row. It introduces beautiful women in gorgeous gowns; lavish settings of millionaire s homes and clubs; and it expounds the old yet new theory that marriage for money alone will not succeed. . , "Sinners in the Sun" should satisfy tne most discerning audiences, for it has an unusual story—that of a girl who married for money because she wished to, and of a man who married for money to defy the girl he loved. The background of the film depicts vividly the hectic gaiety of the restless rich, and through it all is an undercurrent of real romance and true love. . Carol Lombard is the star of this swift, spectacular story of the problems, longings, and temptations of an attractive working girl —a'girl who thought she could follow the dictates of her mind instead of her heart. Miss Lombard has already put herself conspicuously before the public witlr a number of unusual roles, and her popularity will bo increased greatly by her new charactenjjj eoipport of lier, ill tlio leading male rolo is Chester Morris.
