The Brief and Extraordinary Stardom of Ann Dvorak

Описание: In 1932, Ann Dvorak was poised for stardom... What happened? Let's find out.

If you enjoyed this video, I cannot recommend Christina Rice's book Ann Dvorak: Hollywood's Forgotten Rebel enough. It's a 5/5-star biography. You can purchase it here: https://amzn.to/4cUKHB1.

Also, be sure to check out Rice's website: https://www.anndvorak.com.

For fans of Joan Blondell, you must read Joan Blondell: A Life Between Takes by Matthew Kennedy. You can find it here: https://amzn.to/4efFjtE.

Scarface is available on an affordable DVD version from Universal. It doesn't have a lot of extras or bells and whistles, but you can't beat the price: https://amzn.to/3XdbFhD. For an edition loaded with extras, check out the Criterion edition: https://amzn.to/3MAat32.

The Crowd Roars: https://amzn.to/3Xiqn76.

The Strange Love of Molly Louvain is available to watch for free here:    • The Strange Love Of Molly Louvain (1932)   and for purchase here: https://amzn.to/4egruLt.

Unfortunately, Three on a Match is not available on a stand-alone DVD. It is included as part of the Forbidden Hollywood Collection, but it's quite expensive. I'd suggest finding a used copy, as they are usually more reasonably priced: https://amzn.to/3XjqmzN.

Love is a Racket is available on DVD: https://amzn.to/4e4F2tu.
