Considered by many to be among the most blatantly, and for some, blasphemously sexual of all pre-code films. Barbara Stanwyck plays the abused daughter of a speakeasy owner who sells her sexual favors to factory laborers and politicians alike. When a freak accident gives her a ticket out and to the Big City, her journey to the
top of the financial world then becomes a sexually voracious one, paved with the predatory skills branded in her at birth. Also in the cast: George Brent, Donald Cook, Margaret Lindsay, Douglass Dumbrille. Directed by Alfred E. Green. In B&W.
