Review of Forbidden (1932) by Allan C — 16 Nov 2014
Early Frank Capra film, where he's actually billed as Frank R. Capra, about a spinster librarian, Barbara Stanwyck, falling for an unobtainable married man,Adolphe Menjou, who's married to a crippled wife.
It's a pretty hamfisted melodrama and to me seems like more evidence of those who claim that Capra was not a great director and was only ever as good as his scripts. Ralph Bellamy also appears in the film.
