Monday Classic Matinée: FEMALE d. Michael Curtiz, 1933 + Live organ recital at Regent Street Cinema (28 NOV 13:00).

“The highly motivated owner of a car company, Alison Drake (Ruth Chatterton), puts up a businesslike facade, but she frequently cuts loose by casually dating men both in her employ and otherwise. When she tires of spending time with opportunistic guys, however, she happens to meet Jim Thorne (George Brent), one of her own engineers, and is smitten. While Jim initially turns away Alison’s advances, he eventually falls for her, but can their burgeoning romance work in the long run?” (Regent Street Cinema)

“FEMALE is more than just a museum piece from that short era after the introduction of sound and before the enforcement of the Hays Code; it’s a strangely involving, patently absurd, wildly entertaining movie.” – Matt Bailey, www.notcoming.com
