FILM: Possessed (1931, 76 min)
Hollywood censors blanched at this classic soaper, which tells the story of an affair between a thrill-seeking factory worker (Joan Crawford) and a rich attorney (Clark Gable). Will Crawford come to regret moving to New York City and letting her heart take her to scandalous depths of moral turpitude? Crawford and Gable are at their best in a film which was considered unusually frank for its time.
