Please join us for our concluding film of the Pre-Code era. This film stars Jean Harlow (wearing a red wig) as a young woman who seduces her boss (played by Chester Morris) and convinces him to divorce his wife. She soon tires of him, and embarks on an affair with a wealthy businessman. Accused of murder, she escapes prosecution and flees to France where she embarks on another affair, with a chauffeur (played by Charles Boyer in one of his earliest Hollywood roles). This film was one of the films that led directly to a new, tougher moral code that was introduced in 1934, and which remained in force until 1968.
