RED DUST
"Don't mind me, boys. I'm just restless. I guess I'm not used to sleeping nights," purrs Jean Harlow, playing a prostitute engaged in a love triangle with Clark Gable's plantation owner and Mary Astor's adulterous young bride in this 1932 melodrama set in steamy Indochina. In one very sexy scene, Jean's vixen takes refuge from the heat by bathing in a rain barrel. Fun fact: In 1953, Clark starred in Mogambo, a tamer remake of Red Dust.
BABY FACE
After years of being pimped by her father, Barbara Stanwyck's character Lily arrives in New York and begins sleeping her way to the top of a banking institution. "You must use men. Not let them use you," she says in this scandalous 1933 film that led to stricter censorship rules in Hollywood. A young John Wayne plays one of her many lovers!
