PAVILION, SELSEY. THE same team that starred in the outstanding success "Flamingo Road," Joan Crawford and David Brian, come to the Pavilion, Selsey, for the first part of next week in "THE DAMNED DON'T CRY." The story of Lorna Hansen Forbes, a beautiful woman clever in all save love, who rises from middle-class surroundings to become one of the most sought-after glamour women in America, "The Damned Don't Cry" has for a background the gay but desperate life of big-time gamblers, racket operators and gangsters who live in a demi-world of respectability in the richest resort capitals of America. An all-star cast of Linda Darnell, Joseph Cotten, Cornel Wilde and Jeff Chandler, comes for the remainder of the week, when the attraction will be the stirring romantic drama. "TWO FLAGS WEST." The exciting story revolves round a woman who is forced to remain in an obscure frontier fort, commanded by her dead husband's brother, at the time of the American Civil War. At this fort, Chandler, Wilde and Cotten all fall in love with the woman, and the story builds up to a terrific climax with one of the best-staged battles for some time.
