Slight Pre-Coder with Three Engaging Leading Ladies. Jean Harlow, Mae Clarke, and Marie Prevost. Only One would Survive Hollywood into Old Age, Ms.Clarke. Harlow's Early Exit is Legendary, and Prevost was Immortalized by Kenneth Anger In the Book Hollywood Babylon and in a New Wave Pop Song by Nick Lowe.
For Pre-Coders there are Numerous Scenes of the Scantily Clad Actresses (except for the rotund Marie) in Varying Degrees of Undress and the Plot is Ripe with Adultery and Free Thinking. Just for Measure, there is a Suicide.
Not Much of a Movie, Most Notable as Jean Harlow's First Starring Role, but She is a bit Stiff, but Pretty and Very Upright and Brooding. Mae Clark and Marie Prevost do Shine in Their Respective Roles as a Troubled Mistress and Fast Talking Pal.
Prolific Director William Beaudine is at the Helm Without Much Style, but as Always He gets the Job Done with Efficiency.
Worth a Watch for Pre-Code and Harlow Completest but the Movie Really doesn't Offer Much for Either Enthusiast. It Goes to Some Length to be Socially Relevant and Deliver a Message to Female Depression Era Working Stiffs. What Message that is May be Up for Debate.
