Synopsis:

In the naughty, bawdy years before the Production Code, filmmakers turned the camera lens toward sin and its more entertaining consequences. The Strange Love of Molly Louvain is a first-rate example of Hollywood’s pre-Code love affair with third-rate dames and the louses who mistreat them. Featuring early-Talkie stars Ann Dvorak and Lee Tracy and crisply directed by Michael Curtiz (whose later credits include The Adventures of Robin Hood and Casablanca), the film follows the misfortunes of an unwed mother who gets mixed up with a wealthy seducer, a thief, a cynical newshound, a devoted bellhop, a sleazy dancehall, gun-blazing crime and plenty of heartache. The moral: sin doesn’t pay…except at the box office.

Comments about The Strange Love Of Molly Louvain (DVD):

Ann Dvorak was perfect for any pre-code nervous-wracked anxiety and she delivers in spades. once you get past the bleached blonde 'do, the rest of the flick sizzles with one-liners, double ententes, and three great leads. lee tracy serves up his usual wit and richard cromwell is perfect for the love-struck bellhop next door. an abrupt ending, but fun all the way.
dvd quality is good: sharp visuals and clear sound.
