Review of Manhattan Melodrama (1934) by Alia P — 26 Dec 2007
I've seen this before, but it's been awhile. The film is a bit slow at first, but packs an emotional punch as it gets going. This is the first Powell/Loy film. And for a fun bit of trivia - notorious bank robber John Dillinger was shot outside the theater after seeing this movie.
Apparently he was a Myrna Loy fan.
