Leonard Maltin presents Rare Treats from the Vaults of Universal Pictures! Esteemed critic, film historian, and author Leonard Maltin will join us in person, schedule permitting, to discuss!
From Leonard: Directed by Edward L. Cahn and photographed by the great Karl Freund. An incredible pre-Code story about political corruption in a big city featuring such slick bad guys and blowhards as Louis Calhern, Tully Marshall, Berton Churchill (the crooked banker in John Ford’s STAGECOACH) and Edward Arnold. Features Incredible-looking art deco sets and innovative camerawork, as you’d expect from the man who shot METROPOLIS.
