Thanks, that's a multitrack recording I made with a Fender strat and a variety of effects. Thought it fit the mood of these clips....

This is from "Call Her Savage" (which, incidentally, is a strange and wonderful picture!), It was Clara Bow's "comeback vehicle" after quitting the movies about a year earlier. From what I've read, she was not much of a drinker, but she sure was able to depict the condition here! A great actress, misused and abused by Paramount... Who knows what she could have achieved with good management?

reminds me of the state of vicki morgans lifestyle...

Good music to go with the scene. Damn she was a fine actress. I wish she would have done more talkies. But, she was so over the bs. at this point.

Maybe considering the fact that the Hays Production Code wouldn't be enforced strictly until the Summer of 1934, the studios probably felt that it was alright to depict people of a "confused" or "disoriented" sex. After all, there were other films during the early 1930s that revealed homosexual characters.

sadly much of Claras later life was in this condition and probably along with the over use of very strong medication is why she spent so much time in seclusion ,Clara remaind beautiful to the end

I absolutely ADORE her. What a star.

I adore Clara Bow. How well this clip and this music fit together! Nicely done!

Clara was the first "It-girl"...which came from her movie called "It", which was a euphemism for "sex" or "sexiness". She had "it"... by the barrelful.

This film has historical significance in that it apparently is the first Hollywood film to feature a scene in a gay bar... I'm very curious as to how they would've depicted that in 1932... Can you tell me?

[alexegeviz]
