Possessed  — (1931) 06/09/26

It’s glamour time with one of Joan Crawford’s best star vehicles, a core shopgirl-to-Park Avenue saga that’s All About Joan. Clark Gable provides dreamboat chemistry as her Big Apple conquest, but every scene belongs to Crawford, she reads not only her lines but sometimes Clark’s speeches as well. Being a kept woman has its downside — what happens when the love of your life wants to run for public office?  Everyone knows that no American politician can get elected with the slightest blemish on their morals. Joan may have found her ideal 1930s glamour look with this picture. It’s her show all the way. On Blu-ray from The Warner Archive Collection.
