Review of Red-Headed Woman (1932) by Matt H — 25 Mar 2013
Interesting, pre-Code exploitation about a gold-digger trying to make it on her wiles. Jean Harlow plays a vivacious, lying, seemingly heartless tramp of a woman whose knack for wrapping powerful men around her finger doesn't meet with a conscience -- the film plays as sympathetic to her character, which today seems odd, but which Depression audiences must have gone for.
The sex appeal Harlow was known for is on full display here.
