An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More)

The Lady Refuses, the 1931 George Archainbaud silent pre-Code romantic father-son family relationship crime murder prostitution melodrama ("Torn from the heart of woman"; this movie really epitomizes why the Production Code was implemented in the early 1930s!; a rich father is concerned because his son is being romanced by a gold digger, and when a prostitute turns up on his doorstep, he lies and tells the police that she is his niece, and then he hires her to seduce his son away from the gold digger; she does so, and the son turns his life around, but the prostitute really loves the father, and she tells the son the truth, which of course drives him crazy, and that is just the beginning of this really wild and lurid tale!) starring Betty Compson, John Darrow, Gilbert Emery, Margaret Livingston, and Ivan Lebedeff. Is it only me, or does it sound like an unsound plan to hire a prostitute to get your son to quit seeing his gold digging girlfriend?
