Death Takes a Holiday (1934, Mitchell Leisen) Death (Fredric March) is confused why people are reluctant to go with him, so takes human form to find out, on his 'holiday' he is drawn to Grazia (Evelyn Venable). Good looking eccentric fantasy melodrama. A curiosity. #PreCodeApril
The Gay Bride (1934, Jack Conway)
Showgirl (Carole Lombard) is determined to marry money & decides that a gangster (Nat Pendleton) is the perfect mark: lots of money/potential short life-span! But then there's her love/hate relationship with Jimmy (Chester Morris). #PreCodeApril
Now watching: She Done Him Wrong for #PreCodeApril. My second Mae West film after Sextette, her last film. Although I should have watched Night After Night, which was her debut film!
Now watching: The Scarlet Empress which counts towards #PreCodeApril. Some of these posters are great!
FILM OF THE DAY: #CecilBDeMille alternately reverent & outlandish 1932 #precode #epic of early Christianity highlighted by career boosting performances by sensuous #ClaudetteColbert & villainous #CharlesLaughton as #Nero #FredericMarch #TheSignOfTheCross #movie #film #1930s
1930 Maybe It's Love, THE GORILLA, Tom Sawyer and THE LIFE of the PARTY, which film do you think made the biggest impact when it was released #precode
Dames (1934)🎬 Ray Enright and Busby Berkeley
⭐Dick Powell ⭐ Joan Blondell
#PreCode #ClassicsTwitter 🎞
A movie basically set up for Berkeley to have fun with. And he does! What's impressive to me about many of the #Precode films - even the ones done for fun were not lazy.
Martin Scorsese directing in New York City 1970s!

Best thing about #FantasticBeasts - Alison Sudol as Queenie feels like the reincarnation of #PreCode film Flapper Alice White. #TCMParty
