The Bride Wore Red

Screening on Film

Directed by Dorothy Arzner.
With Joan Crawford, Robert Young, Franchot Tone.
US, 1937, 35mm, black & white, 103 min.

Arzner’s second (and only credited) film with Joan Crawford explores the effects that external appearance can have on men’s perception of women. A poor café singer spends two weeks masquerading as an heiress at a posh resort, only to find herself falling in love with the local postman while being courted by a rich playboy.
