I play these old films to lull me to sleep.. Fibromyalgia keeps me from sleeping more than a couple hours at a time and having something playing distracts from the pain that keeps me awake. This film was too good to fall asleep to! I LOVE seeing the old clothes, homes, cars, etc. And there's always a plot. Car chases aren't CGI. Character driven storylines. Thank you for bringing it to us. I highly recommend this film. The costumes--modern women had ditched their corsets only a few years before this film was made. The flimsy little slip dresses were a far cry from being trussed up in whalebone and lacing and 30 pounds of undergarments. The history of women's fashions interests me.
Fibromyalgia is
painful,hope that
pain will go away.
At least you are able
to enjoy these terrific
vintage movies.
Good choices in
comedy,drama,action.
God Bless You!
Keep enjoying these
movies.
Wow i watch for relief of pain too womens fashions a d how we are treated still mindboggling...todays yoga pants or any thing tight and comfortable..i have wasted a fortune on clothes. Now only like comfortable as i suffer from nerve pain quite intense..love these movies for the pain goes into my sleep and entirely has me trying to escape it without any real help from anywhere! these movies do help..glad somebody else is doing that too..feel less alone.pain is intense at different times precode is fascinating diversion for me..good luck with yours( the journey got narrow..old movies truly help!)
@@maryanitaschmidt9651I can totally relate to your fibromyalgia nerve pain. Only somebody who has it can fully understand how it feels.
@Ms Mars exactly right. I love these old movies too and they help lull me to sleep and away from the pain. Since I'm exhausted all the time you would think falling asleep would be easy but nope. Fibro is a tricky, hateful disease.
It's interesting how girdles, corsets, etc. come and go ....
Worth it if not just for the fabulous decor and fashion of the era !
The cut of that sable coat....wow, it is divine!
I love the Art Deco furniture and room decor. And the dress silhouettes of the 1930s were so slinky dinky and flattering. They looked comfortable as well. 😘🖼️🎨
They were flattering if you were slim. I loved the 1940's skirts. The leg length was classic, one can wear that even now.
Yet men’s clothing has not changed in almost 100 years. How do you explain that?
@@jungleno. You don't get out much?
I love this movie! Especially the clothes, and décor. Watched it twice, and will probably watch it again.
You may also Enjoy. Night Work.

I utube 1930 movies and. The Writters actors were. TOPS of course I know this is my personal opinion.

How wonderful to fall back in this timee with these treasured films!
It takes all that is within my being to wake up to this modern world.
It is truly the TRUTH RUDEST AWAKENING I have ever experienced.
Keep them coming and never look forward to these horrible times, when ears are the order of the day!!
Join me and millions of others who prefer to discourage the terror of our modern times in exchange for the serenity of those times that were so young and innocent.
To reiterate, just keep those nour films coming!
They shall never fail us!!;
This movie had to be painful for those who lost their fortunes due to the Depression.
Whenever I watch movies made during the Depression where the storyline involves the lavish lifestyles of wealthy characters, I often think of the audience,many of whom struggled to exist. I cant decide if the glamour on screen helped them temporarily escape their troubles or compound their losses. Likely both.
@@MichelleB2b As the Depression went on, the stories emphasized the foolishness and venality of the rich, so the audience could bask in cinema satin while feeling superior to the ultrawealthy.
Seeing other Sable coat supposed to take the pain away
Would it be better to be in the cold looking at a warm light or just be in the cold?
My mother was born in ‘15 on a farm in Deep South central PA.
Had no idea about the depression till she was married. She said they never had anything so nothing changed for her. People would talk about it but she thought they were speaking of everyday life as she was accustomed too. Only went to 8th grade in a school room with about 10 kids, most of em her siblings, no newspaper, no radio. Found a quarter in a wagon rut and thought she was rich, most money she ever had of her own.
Beautiful art deco set design
Very intense lessons in the importance of morality and being grateful for what God's blessed you with instead of coveting what you don't have. Bittersweet sad tragic ending for one couple.
I guess im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost the login password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me!
@Garrett Fernando Instablaster :)
@Rogelio Troy Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Rogelio Troy It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you really help me out :D
@Garrett Fernando Glad I could help =)
Originally released in October 1930.
June Collyer was the sister of Clayton "Bud" Collyer, who originally studied law, but later became a radio and TV announcer, and was emcee of "BEAT THE CLOCK" and "TO TELL THE TRUTH" {among other programs}. June later married Stu Erwin, who co-starred with him in "TROUBLE WITH FATHER" in the early 1950's.
Some women and some men do not know their limit, a loving husband or wife is so important, but this flies out the window when things and impressing others out ways , sense .
Nice to watch this Gem again after a few years ,thank you for keeping all these old dramas alive and out there ! Your appreciated.
VERY MUCH for sharing and caring for your fellow man. Love ❤️ and. God's Peace to you

Even in an obscure, forgotten film like this, there are still some great dresses and interiors. It's amazing. Well, she couldn't balance a checkbook, but could play bridge. With priorities like that, she deserved what she got. I saw Lloyd Hughes in a few other films, including at least one silent movie. I think I've seen June Collyer somewhere else, but I'm not sure. I know I've seen Jim, Esther, and Mr. Morrell elsewhere. This was way back in the day when customer service was very real.
The man who played Morrel. I'm not sure of his name but he also played " King Wesley" in "It Happened one Night".
In the 1960s I did a show with June Collier and her husband Stuart Erwin. They were both very nice quiet people and I can't even remember the name of the show. It's back when the world was young and so was I.
Thankyou

boy howdy an excellent vintage film. i love the flapper style clothes, hats, hairstyles and so on. thanks Pizzaflix, great movie 🎥🎥🎥🥂🥰
Thanks PizzaFlix. I've been fascinated by the first years of the "talkies" since film school. I've been watching them all since I've found this channel.
Outside of the poverty stricken most had style and class. Today money or none, style and class is becoming a lost art.
I absolutely love your collection of brilliant movies ☺️
It's always a delicate balance.
My ex-wife complained that I wasn't making enough money.
So I started picking up overtime hours at work to make more money.
She complained that I was always working and never home.
I guess that's why she's my ex-wife.
Lucky escape my friend.i had a husband like that,robbed me of 35yrs of health and happiness.grrr
@@jacquelinejudge1659 Sorry to hear about your loss.
I was only married for one year to the woman mentioned in my remark.
No children and no mortgage to deal with. A pretty clean split.
I would say it was ninety percent my fault the marriage failed. She was a smoke'n hot Puerto Rican girl, rich, wild, coming at me like a heat seeking missile, and loved to party.
She was at the level of "rich" that she had me sign a "pre-nup" before she would marry me.
She didn't change after I married her. I was just stupid to marry her. You don't marry girls like that, you just date them until your turn is over.
@@jacquelinejudge1659 You had to pick up overtime at work because your husband wanted you to give him more money?
Good for you. I'm a 73 year old woman. I never could and still can't stand women like that. You did your self a favor letting that go.
I liked this one best of all the precodes so far. Thank you again.
The couple playing Alice and Fred were the prettiest I've seen in an old movie yet.
Wow! June Collyer and Laura Dorothy Christy may be Extravagant but they are worth it
Going out looking like September Morn. Good line.
The music during the luncheon at the Ritz is wonderful, played so wonderfully.
Appropriately enough, it's the old song "Little White Lies"
I love these old movies and Thank You 😊
Good Movie,PizzaFlix! I can tell this was"pre-code" as female lead used " damn" when she became angry w her husband! Very realistic movie RE relationships,,love,caring,compassion for each other! Thanks4 Sharing this film!!
42:42 "I've had my lunch, thank you."
Double meaning there.
Yep
I collect antiques...it's wonderful to spot my pieces in these movies
You’d think their mothers would teach them how to balance household accounts.
That came in the 50,s
Woman did everything and where tranquilized to keep them submissive
36:22 Look at the size of that phone!
You could club somebody over their head with that thing.
It happened from time to time
And LARGE ASH TRAYS!
Amazing how the Press managed to get a new front page distributed city-wide in minutes back in the day. Faster than the internet.
That's Hollywood for you. That has to be horrible to watch a murder-suicide. Back in the day, cities did have multiple editions of newspapers.
'Extra' editions could be written, composed, typeset, printed and distributed in less than an hour and often were.
..and mail was delivered twice per day (but not in rural areas).
Excellent morality tale. Luscious art deco sets and fashion takes place in the end of the Roaring 20's. Perhaps filmed just before the stock market crash, I wonder how Extravagance played while the nation collapsed. Gwen Lee is a true delight.
Going to the movies was the 'escape' for the generation.
Many would go to the films - a double-feature, plus newsreels, cartoons, etc., and get lost amongst the 'stars'.
It's very similar to what was found out about what was the 'best' type of TV programme to watch if one were feeling sad, depressed.
It wasn't 'comedies', no - it was gone shows, and the reason being - it offered people a chance to view something 'possible'.
The same logic applies here - in the midst of the depression, one would want to 'escape' the realities, into a world of luxuries, and glamour.
Some things never change.
Those who didn't have tons of cash in the stock market did just fine. Small towns were wiped out regardless
@@UNOwen1 What's a gone show?
@@JOBRAIL1 Not true. People didn't do just fine.
Thank you again for superb film, great acting!
A great big round of applause to those who have taken their time to present them to us!
From janitorsto directors and producers,our utmost thanks to allwho contribute their days and months to afford us these premier luxuries of yesterday's cinema greats!!
The invention of films shall forever be remembered and deserving of so many accolades, it is incomprehensible to understand the depth and character of those who
have given their allfir us to enjoy!!!!!
Love this film! Gwen Lee is fabulous!
As a man, it's always better to make your money first, and then chase after women.
However, there is no wisdom in signing a contract that rewards the other person for breaking it.
Huh???????
@@MsMars. "there is no wisdom in signing a contract that rewards the other person for breaking it."
I am talking about the marriage contract.
However you may be the "Unicorn" and this doesn't apply to you.
The old societal model was:
A young woman would trade her youth and fertility exclusively to only one man, and he in turn would be the workhorse and take care of her when she gets past her prime. This was a great incentive for men to work, become men, and get married. You got a prize, a young beautiful loyal wife.
In theory, as we know life isn't perfect.
She does him a favor early on by being a virgin/exclusive and later he does her a favor by staying and supporting her instead of leaving her for a younger woman. They both get a prize.
The new societal model is:
Women whore around and waste their youth and fertility on Chad/Tyrone, get walled out, get STDs, lose their ability to pair bond, rapidly accelerate their aging process with excessive alcohol and fast food, and have no loyalty to any man. What sensible man would pay top dollar for something 30 other men got for free? The incentive for men is gone. You don't get a prize anymore. You get a parasite with an entitlement mentality that’s looking to take your resources and then some. Before you even say “I do” at the altar, she’s already plotting how to financially grape you’re A$$ in family court after she locks you in with at least one kid, a mortgage, and then divorces your sorry A$$ a few years later.
Why do you think she’s smiling as she’s walking down the aisle? Wouldn’t you if you got to keep the house, the kids, all the cash and prizes, and she’s paying for it all? Men get divorced to get rid of something. Women get divorced to get something.
A woman’s main reason for getting married is to get a divorce. Most women are cold, cruel, predatory animals with no conscience.
A woman who marries for money will complain about love. A woman who marries for love will complain about money. A woman who has both will find something else to complain about.
Apparently, the worst thing a woman can experience is being married to a man who loves her.
A man's sixual drive is used to lure him into signing a one-sided lifetime contract with a parasitic woman with penalties for leaving. She gets to keep all the cash and prizes and can break the contract at any time, for any reason, lie under oath, and suffer no penalties. In fact, she is rewarded and encouraged to do so.
There is no wisdom in signing a contract with someone who benefits from breaking it.
A man is not going to invest in somebody that at best laughs at him or at worst hates him and blames him for everything.
You're expected to pay a premium price for a used up, beaten up, tatted up, parasitic leach. Who is an ungrateful, self-consumed, easily offended, fat, ugly, aggressive b!tch on wheels, with a masculine demeanor, and an entitlement mentality. A soulless woman from the bargain basement bins of some store in the hood with the morals of an alley cat. An in denial, freak of nature, pathologically delusional, self-esteem deficient, morally bankrupt, bottom dwelling, blood sucking, inhuman, creature of the night, spawned from the seed of Satan. A true boil on the buttocks of the world.
When she dies, the last living reminder of helll will be gone from the face of the earth.
She has kids from Chad/Tyrone or both, personal credit card debt, no assets, school debt for a worthless degree in liberal arts, Greek Mythology, Humanities, or gender studies. No cooking skills and no desire to learn any, no fiscal responsibility, an overly banged vagina, and a pet you’ll be expected to take care of as well.
And you're supposed to be happy about this opportunity to lick up the scraps from the floor.
The so-called good men she wants and can’t find are out there. They just don’t want her at the table because she has nothing to bring except financial and emotional pain. When women say, "Men are only after one thing". Meaning seex. My question to them is, do you have anything else to offer? Crickets is all I hear. Which means even they don't believe they have anything else to offer.
In addition, she also has great expectations you’ll do everything for her, make her feel better, and provide an unrealistic unsustainable lifestyle she feels she deserves because she read about it some feminazi magazine article that hates men.
All this while she cheats behind your back with the “bad boys” she’s always really wanted all along, while you’re at work paying all the bills to feed this little parasite.
Women don’t “love men”, they love what men can do for them. Where are all the great works of art female artists have created, inspired by their love of men?
Men are not afraid of commitment or marriage…. Men are afraid of getting divorce graped in “family court.” It’s just a bad deal all the way around for men and a crap shoot at best. There’s nothing in it for men except the chance to be financially ruined for the rest of your life.
If you were thinking of going skydiving and knew that three out of four parachutes failed, and you had already watched your friends jump, some successfully, others not so. Would you be willing to take the chance that you're going to be the exception and get the one parachute out of the four that is going to work?......... I mean they all look so pretty and smell so good and feel so soft to the touch and they are offering you the thrill of a lifetime if you would just let one of them wrap itself around you and make that commitment to attach yourself to it and jump...... would you still take that chance?
But… but…. Look how pretty the parachutes are, smell their lovely fragrance, touch and feel how soft they feel, they beckon you to try one of them on, please try me on and let me wrap myself tightly around you and see how good I feel to you, I’ll hold on tight and snug to you, I am not like the others, honest I am different, I’ll work.
Well….. would you do it? Would you take that chance for the thrill of a lifetime?
Yea, that sounds like a good deal if I were a moron, is this the line I stand in to lose half my sheet?
Good luck with that.
Men are waking up and realizing this system is defective and toxic. Women's seexual liberation, femiinism and the birth control pill, have ironically dis-empowered women. They are throwaway seexual objects now more than ever.
"Femiinism did NOT free women from the chains they thought they had. It freed MEN from the chains they had no idea were there."

@@im1who84udamn you went in
thanks for uploading. ❤️ precoded hollywood movies!!!!
Oh my God I love this channel!
Thank you for this good movie
Sad how the good guys seem to have selfish, ungrateful wives and the good wives have horrible husbands. It's very rare when both spouses are genuinely devoted to their marriages through thick/thin rich/poor.
It is a little more difficult
That's the kind of theater that gets a crowd. Who wants to go watch a faithful, happy marriage celebrating it's 50th anniversary? what kind of a story line is that? In our society, it's considered boring.
Thus our high divorce rate. I think many of us are attracted to the opposite of who we are, and on occasion that’s a good thing, but for the majority it does not bode well for a relationship in the long term.
Billie Edwards
It seems as if men & women end up competing with each other instead of having the unconditional love we didn’t have as children. The Almighty Dollar is more important than the loving feelings we had in the beginning. We learned this from the behaviors of those around us ~ love turns into resentment. The world becomes so hard & lonely without the support of each other. Our focus is backwards or we would all be happier. Love is supposed to make the world go round. No wonder our poles are shifting!
Billie Edwards How true
A life can be so wonderful or so devastating
Some people are shallow. All they want are material things. I'm glad she came to her senses.
Yeah Right she only stopped what she was doing after esther's murder in fear of her own husband putting two and two together and killing her. Hope her husband finds the truth then divorce court!!
P.S. Great Movie!!!!!
For now.
@@stacynels4 Did you actually watch the film?! Those reasons you stated aren't valid.
The music, that is driving me to near distraction starts at 21:17. Its the scene where the two scheming ladies lunch with the diminutive lounge lizard and we witness yet another act of betrayal. But it's this music that has me in a bind and it won't let go of me. It is more usual for me to give no personal importance to this style of music from the 1920's & 30's. But this little piece; this catchy tune is beguiling. I just love it.
Bruce Gibbins The song is "Little White Lies." And it is a great tune and song. The second tune the unseen band plays is "I'll Be a Friend With Please." I believe you'll find a good 1930 record of "Little White Lies" on youtube.
Fred Smith Thank you for that, Fred. With the information you provided I have found many renditions of this tune. The most pleasing to my ear is the 1930 recording by the Earl Bertlett Orchestra recorded at the Los Angeles Biltmore with the vocal provided by, Paul Gibbons. I'm enjoying playing this tune - often.
Bruce Gibbins That beguiling song is "Little White Lies," with a terrific version by Fred Waring & the Pennsylvanians, the tune can be found on youtube
@@fredsmith1837 As a teenager in the 1950s I started collecting old dance band records. This song, 'Little White Lies' as played by Nat Lewis and his dance band was my favourite one--and stayed that way for decades! I still have it but I now listen to it on YOU TUBE.
He wasn't a 'lounge lizard' he was wealthy and had his own business. He was a player.
Women, stop getting in trouble, it's your marriage, not just yours, and your friends.
wow really enjoyed this
Sweet ending! Lesson learned the hard way. And lucky he really loved her.
Nice precode with beautiful fashion of the era.
I love your synopsis, especially the use of "glamor puss." 😊

throwing rice at a wedding. a practice we have learned is lethal to birds. just the same, love those wacky koo koo heads. old school rocks.
Sometimes the comments are as good as the movie. This one especially on "Wacky koo koo heads". The rice issue is new to me, and the grand finale of the "old school rocks".
The rights issue is such an old wives tale nobody believes that anymore. It's one of those things everybody believes is true until they find out it isn't that's how I found out
It's simply untrue that raw rice is dangerous to birds or other wildlife. It takes a much hotter temperature than their stomachs.
I suppose this myth got started by the people who have to sweep up the church steps lol.

pre-code hollywood.....the husband's and wife's slippers by the bed....Shocking! :)
But, they are wasting the "unmentionables".
I meant WEARING
THAT isn't the shocking part. :D
June Collyer was such a beauty
Joan Crawford's movies were essentially along the same theme: poor, gorgeous wench that claws her way to the "top". TONS of young women wanted to be like her characters and were willing to sacrifice their morals, - or at least their bodies, to get "to the top." Movies messed up a lot of heads. - My mother was a teenager and she met an older man who came from the kind of wealth this film depicts. "Silver with monograms!" For whatever reason, the marriage ended quickly, but she and others that were lucky enough - that's right, LUCKY enough to have looks, did what they could. Cabbage every night. Or, maybe twice a day, if you were lucky. It was thin gruel for America back then. - Could we survive that now? Nope.
Nice move. Thanks.
24:46 A light in the closet?
Okay, lets go with that, but why is it already on?
Quite a tumble down the cast listing for Gwen Lee, who a couple of years before this was a star at MGM, but now was near the bottom of the list at a poverty row studio. I mostly remember Dorothy Christy for playing Buster Keaton's wife to be in "Parlor, Bedroom & Bath", Stan Laurel's wife in "Sons of the Desert" and the Queen in the Gene Autry serial "The Phantom Empire". Three pictures that turn up all over the place.
Yes the Phantom Empire we want to remember the Phantom Empire don't we the greatest? One of the greatest and only because of Dorothy Christy and that dress she wore week after week after week after week
I have to have spending money......... What!!!....... We need food, and to keep a roof over our heads.....
Very risque! This would have never shown in 1957

I really don't know what you're saying mr. Do but it sounds good to me as long as you're happy
Lots of crazy background noise.
It was a treat watching Boris Karloff's craft in this movie, where he was the only talent. The rest of the cast would have benefited from a lot of acting lessons.
Asensio Rodriguez I don’t think that’s Boris Karloff. Extravagance isn’t listed in his filmography.
Where is this furniture? ❤
What's that rumbling noise in the background ?
Bad audio I guess
I am often amazed how CLEAR the pictures were...but audio didn't catch up until late 30s. (Gone Eith The Wind , Wizard of Oz, etc.)
Oh, Tiffany. It never made a splash but was part of the merger which became Republic.

I am only about thirteen minutes into this movie and it is reminding me something I wrote some time ago and I'll paste it here. Let's see how it compares to where this movie is going.
Where did you paste it I like to read it very?
@@roderickfernandez5382 Gosh, I must have forgotten to post it.
I watched the first thirteen minutes of this movie again to see if could remember what it was that I was going to post. In addition I went through some of my past writings and reread them.
Can't say I know for sure what I was thinking I was going to post when I wrote that comment a year ago, but here is something that may fit this movie.
Women Aren't Attracted To Men.
Women are not actually attracted to men. There is a vague idea of what a man is physically, and some are better than others aesthetically speaking, but the purely physical appearance of a man is almost inconsequential unless he is horribly ugly or outrageously attractive.
Women are attracted to a man’s resources, what he can do for her, his status, money, how much her friends would envy her for being seen with him, how much a man smiles and laughs, how many friends and resources a man has, how full a man's life is--how many "cool," "exciting" and prestigious things he is doing or connected to.
They are interested in how other people view him--how many people want to be around him, how other people interact with him and whether their interactions convey that he is special and amazing. They want him to be extremely outgoing and aggressive, they want him to demonstrate his status over other people by dominating them in various non-violent ways.
A woman's attraction to a man is a function of her jealousy at the thought of another woman having that man. She doesn't care who he actually is or EXACTLY what he looks like physically, she only cares about the VALUE of the life he has constructed around himself.
A woman basically is a greedy materialistic prostitute. Although that sounds vulgar, it's true. She trades her physical self to buy into the success a man has created for himself.
As a man, I fall in love with how a woman is physically. I fall in love with simple parts of a woman. Like the way her hair falls around her face, the line of her neck, her shoulders. The way her ears might peek from her hair. Her eyelashes. The size and shape of her hands, her fingernails. The way she walks, the way she looks when she is tired or annoyed, the sound she makes when she sneezes, coughs, or cries. The way she sits in a chair. The way she breathes while experiencing different emotions. The way her lips move. A million little things.
Sure, a huge part of my attraction is mental, but the powerful seed of love that builds within me and crystallizes is based greatly on visual things that set off torrents of emotion and need.
It seems to me that women almost cannot think for themselves. Their estimates of worth are based on other peoples' estimates of worth. They don't really find an object beautiful on their own. The object becomes beautiful when other people let her know that it is beautiful.

Why does this movie shake-up memories of Mildred Pierce.
As for the movie's depiction of people in general (if such is any intent), very - very few people like those shown,
lived or even could live like anything even remotely like those shown here.
It was a grossly impoverished time for near everyone: starvation, unemployment, a severely depressed economy, utter financial ruination, and suicide were the order of 1930 - not sable coats and maid service.
Strange movie, - I'd be curious to know the intended theme; a very narrow one it must be, - in any event.
Funny hearing some viewers extolling or praising the art Deco when I'd have thought more contemporary viewers would have favored Neuveau.
I feel so very fortunate to have a wife, one I've known for going on ~ 40 years, - who I can say with all confidence is virtually the antithesis of the women shown here.
Genuine, with a wonderful heart. A very unselfish 'down-to-earth' and very classy lady.
Someone once told me that the angels sent her.
Post Script: The girl wouldn't have a fur coat -
if she was paid to take it !
Jackie Reynolds You are right about the depths of the Depression, of course, but his film was begun before the crash (October 1929) and released in 1930. For most, the shift was not quite as abrupt as we think. There were still millions of pre-tax dollars in bank accounts that took a little while to be spent. I am very happy to hear about your wife being such a wonderful and true companion. It sounds as though you know how lucky you are. Good luck in the future and the coming New Year!
I find your comment strange regarding viewers appreciation of Art Deco and supposed non appreciation of Art Nouveau. I think most viewers would appreciate both as I do.
Such a sad ending.
great moral lesson, even though pre code! can't imagine today's wives doing the same thing
Totally a drool fest with the clothes, hats cars etc. Then there’s the storyline. The play conveyed passion without nude scenes and the couple’s tragic death also conveyed without any bloodshed on screen.
Could that child at the beginning be Shirley Temple?
1:33 Is that Shirley Temple?
No. Temple, born in 1928, made her first screen appearances in 1932.

I wonder if anyone can help. I have been desperately looking for a old film about a married women who has many admirers who constantly come to her home. Her husband is a very patient man and just allows her to live her adulterous life. Then he dies and goes to heaven. Wife continues to live her life until the day when she is also about to die. She sees the ghost of her dead husband and begs for his help and forgiveness, but he refuses and I think her fear sends her to down to hell. I can’t remember anymore about the film or who stared in it, but have been trying so hard to find it.
I don't know what the film is there were so many like that but if we find it we should watch it together it sounds like great fun
Sure she could live with less, maid and $32k for a fur coat
Not lovin' Esther's haircut. She's flirty, sexy ,cunning and all that but that hairstyle not so much.
Really? I quite liked it. That extremely short hair on women in the late 20s was daring and suited for those cloche hats.
I love it so much it goes very well with having to wear a mask now. I can't wait to get it.
a lesson learned, no man gives a married woman anything without his own personal agenda. In this case the someone lives to learn that two people death was caused by lies and the playboy get's away to find other silly married women
I liked looking at the architecture, cars, clothing, Furniture Etc during this 1930s movie. I understand how unrealistic it was considering the times of the depression. The movie was a moderate distraction even though it was absolutely predictable all the way through. I mean come on already, right? Lol. But what the heck was that weird knocking noise that was in the background throughout practically the whole movie?
GOOD STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!
My second good movie today thank you
Watching this precode movie was interesting and Im sure a tad risque at that. I rate it a 7.
Buds sister Stu's wife.
Fred and Alice, Jim and Esther. Wives never content and wanting more. Poor husband working day and night to provide. Why a sinfle man has to have someone else's wife?
1:00:57 What........... A.............. Simp.
Invest in stock in 1930? is she crazy?
How do you think the 29 crash came ?
technically that was the best time to buy long term. Not so crazy actually.
@@mysecondemailatl ..True. the market crash was because people were buying $10,000. of "valued stock for $500.00. And down went the broker's and banks, too.
(Another "house of cards" is being built in today's markets).
Was this made before or after Oct. 1929? He is guaranteeing she won't lose money. She has no idea how anything financial works and he is taking advantage of the fact she likes to gamble on bridge. She is resisting maturity mightily, I'll say that for her. Look at the middle age totally ditzy rich wives and their daughters in later 1930s movies like My Man Godfrey.
@@mysecondemailatl Technically not, because so many companies went bankrupt. Wait for the dust to settle and buy the stock of the soundest.
I was going to try and warn her to stay away from the Stockman. But since it's been 93 years, I'm sure it's too late for all involved. If I'm wrong and you know her, give her a heads up regarding the nasty Stockman! And I'll tell you something else, don't buy a sable coat. If you have, get rid of it!
@bob I agree, it's too late to warn her to stay away from the stock man. He's creepy anyway. I would also warn her not to buy a sable coat because it's a senseless act to kill all of those animals for the sake of vanity and fashion.
@@MsMars. You fine woman, are a good soul.
