Ep 150: Constance Bennett in Two Against the World (1932)


Listen Later

Constance Bennett's deal with Warner Bros. became a Hollywood scandal after Louella Parsons estimated that the star would earn $30,000 a week. Few reporters told the whole story. Two Against the World (1932) was her second picture on the deal. In the first half. Connie's performance anticipates the bratty screwball heiress types which were later portrayed by Claudette Colbert and Carole Lombard.

Special thanks to Thomas O'Mahony for sound editing the episode.
