Barbara Stanwyck uses a whole range of cunning seduction tricks to "sleep" her way from an illegal bar in a basement step by step to the top of the social ladder. A very young and smartly dressed John Wayne is one of her naive victims. There aren't many actresses who can play such a calculating role as coolly as Stanwyck.

I knew the song : "Baby Face, you've got the cutest, little baby face..." but never thought to assimilate it with a film with Barbara Stanwyck, which possibly fit that description, but I still mainly remember it as an actress who radiated energy and seduction... which is certainly the case in this film.
Film is quite "naughty" for its time, quite pleasant for consequences with Barbara Stanwyck doing very well as the ambitious beautiful girl, who wants to get out of the poverty and anonymous subservience of the US crisis years.
Good story actually, although I thought the bank bankruptcy was exaggerated .
A very young John Wayne still in a small role. On the 8th post in the cast list. His time would come. Many show and stage greats also started under "...and many others..." on the bill.

Anyone who still has a blind faith in Metoo and the sentence: believe all women should watch this film carefully, but then forget the rather unbelievable happy ending, because if a film has a happy ending

unbelievable then it is this one.

Stanwyck plays her role well, although I found the men who fell very easily for her manipulation a bit too much of a good thing.

The end can be summarized in 1 short sentence : rather the sweet lie than the hard reality .
