Hedy Lamarrs and Ann Sheridans may come and go, but Dietrich will star forever. Her latest, "The Seven Sinners," is a cinema "Panama Hattie" with a Malayan locale, minus the fifth column and Ethel Merman and plus a liberal sprinkling of the Navy. Marlene, just as alluring in the part of a honky-tonk songstress as ever she could have been in her pre-Hitler Berlin musical comedy days, makes up for the loss of Ethel.

Versatile as always, she moons and moans and even plays billiards with the handsome ensigns, and somehow she manages to be fascinating through it all. Two choice ditties by a newcomer named Hollander give her a chance to show off her husky voice, and a tight-fitting uniform and some slinky dresses give her a chance to display the rest of herself. During the infrequent moments when she isn't on the screen the show is nothing extra, except during the brawl-to-end-all brawls which serves as a finale.

The current "March of Time," also appearing on the bill, gives a better representation of Mexico than does Lupe Velez in the second feature, "Mexican Spitfire," a quickie that took too long.
