Midnight Mary (1933) -- (Movie Clip) A Girl's Gotta Live Loretta Young (title character), awaiting her sentence in a murder trial, is recalling years past via the spines of court record books, including meeting her pal Bunny (Una Merkel) and her future employer-boyfriend, hoodlum Leo (Ricardo Cortez), in Midnight Mary, directed by William A. Wellman.

Midnight Mary (1933) -- (Movie Clip) Her Vicious Criminal Career From the top, Frank Conroy the prosecutor and top-billed Loretta Young the accused title character, the outcome not looking good as her trial ends, Charley Grapewin the philosophical but gaff-prone clerk with her awaiting a verdict, in Midnight Mary, 1933, from MGM and William A. Wellman.

Midnight Mary (1933) -- (Movie Clip) Who Might That Lovely Lady Be? We know that knockout lady gambler Mary (Loretta Young) and coat check babe Bunny (Una Merkel) both work for gangsters, so we know something’s up at the casino, as we meet sophisticate Tom (Franchot Tone) and dyspeptic buddy Sam (Andy Devine), in MGM’s Midnight Mary, 1933.

Baby Face (1933) -- (Movie Clip) Have You Had Any Experience? Lily (Barbara Stanwyck, title character) has come straight from the boxcar on-which she rode-in to the employment office of a big city firm, where she meets the defenseless Pratt (Maynard Holmes), in the pre-Code shocker Baby Face, 1933.

Alexander's Ragtime Band -- (Movie Clip) Blue Skies In an all-Irving Berlin musical, the composer's two favorite singers (Ethel Merman as "Jerry", Alice Faye as "Stella," having just met) take turns with "Blue Skies," in Alexander's Ragtime Band, 1938.

Female (1933) -- (Movie Clip) Drake Motor Car First scene directed by Michael Curtiz (presumably, though others contributed without credit) establishes a standard American car company and it's unusual CEO, the chairman and daughter of the founder, Allison Drake (Ruth Chatterton), Lois Wilson her visiting friend, in Female, 1933.

Female (1933) -- (Movie Clip) You Are A Goddess In the just-barely pre-Code Warner Bros./First National potboiler, Ruth Chatterton as auto CEO Allison plucks a prospective boy-toy (Philip Reed) from her staff, then reconsiders, in one of a handful of pictures shot at the famous Frank Lloyd Wright Ennis House in LA, in Female, 1933.

One Night At Susie's (1930) -- (Movie Clip) These Millionaires, They're So Eccentric Press agent Dick (Douglas Fairbanks) is alarmed when the showgirl pals of his fianceè Mary (Billie Dove) are turned away from a party at the posh apartment of her crooked Broadway producer, with whom she’s stuck upstairs, with a neat elevator process-shot, in One Night At Susie’s, 1930.

One Night At Susie's (1930) -- (Movie Clip) Rods On The Table Creditable early-talkie technique, jovial murderous mobsters clustered around the microphone, introducing Susie (Helen Ware) of the title and providing backstory for leading man Douglas Fairbanks Jr., opening the First National Billie Dove vehicle One Night At Susie’s, 1930.

One Night At Susie's (1930) -- (Movie Clip) Will Your Underwear Fit Him? Broadway press agent Dick (Douglas Fairbanks Jr.) introduces showgirl fianceè Mary (Billie Dove) to good-samaritan Susie (Helen Ware), boarding-house operator and his de-facto mom, who later deals with another tenant and her sort-of butler (Tully Marshall), in One Night At Susie’s, 1930.

Baby Face (1933) -- (Movie Clip) Sweetheart Of The Night Shift Her despicable father (Robert Barrat) clears the speakeasy so he can sell the favors of his daughter Lily (Barbara Stanwyck, title character) to an already smashed local politician (Arthur Hohl), but she objects, early in Warner Bros.' Baby Face 1933.

Baby Face (1933) -- (Movie Clip) Be A Master, Not A Slave! Mentor and small-town Nietzschean philosopher Cragg (Alphonse Ethier) has advice for Lily (Barbara Stanwyck, title character), at loose ends after the accidental death of her very abusive father, in Baby Face, 1933.

One Night At Susie's - (Original Trailer) A boarding house keeper's gangster tenants step in to help when her son is framed for murder in the talking picture One Night At Susie's (1930).
