One of the most risqué of Hollywood movies before the introduction of the Production Code has Stanwyck as a gold-digger who literally sleeps her way from floor to floor of a city trust company building, from the basement up to the Vice-president's...read the complete Baby Face (1933) review at Channel 4 Film

I loved all three of the Forbidden Hollywood films. I had heard of a couple vaguely but had never really paid much attention to finding them. I enjoyed them all. Red Headed Woman has Harlow as hussy of the worst persuasion yet she triumphs over ...

This first set from the TCM Archives and Warner Home Video features restored prints and audio - beautiful job! Thank you. Wonderful movies, all three but my favorite has to be "Red-Headed Woman" with Jean Harlow and Chester Morris -- "well, he's a man ...
