The Wedding Night (1935 King Vidor)

Author Gary Cooper (I know) hangs about with Polish Anna Sten (actually Ukranian-Swedish, star of Der Mörder Dimitri Karamasoff ) in Connecticut, who's engaged to oik Ralph Bellamy by strict father Sig Rumann; whilst wife Helen Vinson swans around back home. Otto Yamaoka isn't even credited, though gets far more screen time than last billed Walter Brennan.

Comedy turns tragedy - Edwin Knopf story, adapted by Edith Fitzgerlad, shot by Gregg Toland, scored by Lionel Newman
