The billing alone is convincing that "THE SIN THAT WAS HIS" is the biggest photoplay of the year. There is no star like. FAVERSHAM when it comes to real drama on the screen. There is no technique required for faultless direction which HOBART HENLEY does not know. There is no author who understands his public better than FRANK L. PACKARD There is no producer better equipped than LEWIS J. SELZNICK to cater to exhibitors' needs. But no analytical examination of the billing, the details of the story, or of the "stills" can get over to you that mysterious, almost uncanny, fascination which this master production has had for every solitary individual who has seen it to date. It is well worth a trip to any city in your neighborhood to see "THE SIN THAT WAS HIS" at the usual theatre presentation_or any SELECT EXCHANGE will screen it for you.
