Comment/Synopsis

A lively and sexy young woman (Clara Bow) marries a back woodsman, but is then atracted to a vising wealthy lawyer. The film is all about the performance of Clara Bow as the bright, sexy jazz woman but with an older and more staid husband. This is entertaaining even if the plot is thin. One of Clara Bow'sbetter performances of this style of character against a background of well filmed outdoor scenes.Director Victor Fleming went on to direct Gone With The Wind and The Wizard Of Oz.
