Surprisingly good movie!

Surprisingly good movie! I liked the tight focused storyline. Especially with a female character as the center of the movie. Rose has several very strong lines that I could hear Barbara Stanwyck say.

The set decorations were impressive. I did not notice all the art decor touches until the raid and the police began tearing down the club.

Rose's apartment was very fashionable. I think I saw her drapes in an episode of Miami Vice! The settee/bench/sofa that Rose and Bing sit on looks very stylish but also uncomfortable. Made a good shot though.

Rose's gowns are breathtaking. It is a shame that the designer was not listed in the credits. I thought they were very fitted and daring. You could see that a flesh tone netting of some sort was used to hold the gowns in place. In a year, Kay Francis would be wearing those gowns unsecured.

Really good movie. So glad I was able to see it.
