THE STYLE OF SIN: PRE-CODE FILM WITH KIMBERLY TRUHLER
Kay Francis Double Feature!
GIRLS ABOUT TOWN / JEWEL ROBBERY
Made between 1930, when the restrictive Production Code was adopted, and 1934, when it was in full effect, “pre-Code” films are beloved for their provocative content and rather risqué style. This six-part series introduces viewers to some of the most popular actresses of the pre-Code era through double features of their films - Barbara Stanwyck, Jean Harlow, Kay Francis, Carole Lombard, Marlene Dietrich, Joan Blondell and Joan Crawford.
Program begins with an illustrated presentation by historian Kimberly Truhler. Films begin at 2:00 PM.
