Dance, Fools, Dance (1931 Harry Beaumont)

Zippy pre-Code drama. Society siblings Joan Crawford and Lester Vail are left penniless when their father dies. She gets a job as a journalist, he goes into bootlegging for crime boss Clark Gable. Their stories of course interweave after fellow journalist is murdered.

Photographed by Charles Rosher, hard to admire in TPTV's washed out print.

Crawford is vivacious and dances the house down.




MGM.
