Description by OLDIES.com:
Back in the days before "the Code" forced Hollywood to walk away from its wild side, the silver screen enticed escape-craving Depression-Era audiences with salacious slices of life. Hungers and thirsts that would shortly become taboo for a generation and more were on ample display in movie palaces across the country, from amoral and amorous working class anti-heroes and high-living, free-loving dilettantes to hard-drinking newshounds and hard-gambling dogtrackers. No kink or bit of lingerie was not worthy of a wink or a peek.
Blonde Crazy (1931)
James Cagney and Joan Blondell melt the screen as a bellhop and chambermaid out to con criminals while enjoying each other.
Strangers May Kiss (1931)
Norma Shearer finishes shredding her good girl image as a desperate lady on a love trek across the continent.
Hi, Nellie! (1934)
Paul Muni takes a rare turn at comedy as a newspaperman demoted to the lovelorn column, finding comfort in a glass.
Dark Hazard (1934)
Edward G. Robinson stars as a gambling addict, torn between good girl Genevieve Tobin and glamour girl Glenda Farrell, who bets it all on one special pooch.
