Red-Headed Woman (1932)
Red-Headed Woman is a 1932 film of the Pre-Code era based on a novel by Katherine Brush.
Though originally developed as a project for Greta Garbo, the film stars Jean Harlow as
Lil "Red" Andrews, an unapologetic homewrecker who lacks "moral" sensibility. The sexually
promiscuous Lil is determined to rise up the business ladder even if it means sleeping
her way to the top.
With marital infidelity; lots of implicit sex, violence, sadism and a plentiful of bare
female flesh, Red-Headed Woman conforms absolutely to the description of the type of film
that simply couldn't be made a few years later. Red-Headed Woman is a fast-paced, vulgar,
humorous and excitingly appealing film that exemplifies the entertainment Hollywood could
offer before the angry and offended moralists and the Production Code dropped a net of
censorship over the studios. (IMDB)
