Review of Possessed (1931) by Jennifer H — 27 Jan 2013
Joan Crawford plays a woman who finds her poor, working man (Wallace Ford) boring and wants to leave him. She does and travels by train to New York, where she meets a successful lawyer (Clark Gable). They eventually wed, only for Joan to discover that her prior man becomes rich as an infrastructure builder.
Odd, unbelievable drama by especially todays' standards seems silly, but is not too bad due to the presence of Gable. Not Crawford's greatest performance. Definitely her best ones came later.
