REGENT THEATRE
A ROMANTIO COMEDY A light, romantic story, designed expressly for the talents of its stars, is presented in Paramount 's "My American Wife," Prancis Le&^rer-Ann Sotherji picture, to screen to-day at the JKegent Theatre. Lederer, who demonstrated his appeal recently in "One Eainy A^on^en," is cast in the film as a foreign count who marries an American girl, then sets about to prove hknself as good an American as her pioneer grandfather, Fred Stone. Miss Sothern, led by the social aspirations of her mother, Billie Burke, insists on keeping her count in braid and spangles, while he wants to don chaps and ten-gallon hat. Taklng a "reverse angle slant" on the theme of the titleseeking society girl and the moneyseeking nobleman, "My American Wife" makes an entertainingly Jresh type of film romance.
