Tarnished Lady Overview:

Tarnished Lady (1931) was a Drama - Black-and-white Film directed by George Cukor and produced by Walter Wanger.

SYNOPSIS

In Cukor's first solo outing and Bankhead's first talkie, a gold digger (Bankhead) marries a well-to-do but mild-mannered man (Brook) for his money. After growing bored with society niceties, she finds action and thrills in the hot Harlem nightclubs. But when an unexpected pregnancy is paired with a financial downfall, the once ambitious woman finds that there's "not a thing convenient about a marriage of convenience." Bankhead got the big studio build-up for her debut, but she never succeeded in translating an outsized personality into screen stardom.
