Dangerous
Warner Brothers, 1935
A very fast and enjoyable, early Bette movie. She won her first Academy Award for this movie, many believe for being overlooked the previous year for her performance in Of Human Bondage. I've seen both and and in my opinion, this film is better. I also love her co-star Franchot Tone who plays the wealthy architect who helps this alcoholic "on the skids" actress who feels she ruins every life she touches.
