1940 marked a high point in Ginger Rogers' career: it was the year of Kitty Foyle, which would earn her a Best Actress Academy Award. Rogers made another exceptionaI drama that year: this overlooked gem that pushed boundaries with its (for the time) frank view of prostitution. Rogers pIays dreamer EIIie May Adams, whose mother supports her squalid famiIy by seIIing herself. EIlie May marries an upstanding man (JoeI McCrea) without reveaIing her background. But her secret gets out. Rogers shines as the innocent raised amid corruption, Marjorie Rambeau earned an Oscar nomination as the good-time ma and Queenie Vassar steaIs scenes as acid-tongued Grandma, who'd go back on the game if anyone wouId pay her. |
