A middle-class woman becomes a local crusader after suspecting corruption inside her council is behind defective drains and a public health crisis.

Shortly before shedding her snakeskin vamp persona for good by wrapping herself in the ermine confines of Nora Charles, Myrna Loy terrified and terrorized as the murderous mesmerist Ursula Georgi in the pre-Code horror show Thirteen Women. Following a racist sorority's cruel rebuff, half-caste Ursula embarks on a blood-thirsty trail of deceit and murder until only one woman (Irene Dunne) is left to face her. Aside from the allure and interest of its two leading ladies – each on the cusp of their ascension into cinema legend – Thirteen Women's delights are rather more diabolical and devastating than the more domestic concerns of a traditional "Women's Picture." From its breathless and terrifying (and arrestingly staged) opening aerial atrocity through its stabbings, suicides and hidden bombs, Thirteen Women's relentless pace startles and astonishes, ever driven by Loy's portrayal of Ursula's unalloyed and unapologetic evil.

A young man becomes a lawyer after leaving reform school. He eventually rises to assistant DA, but his arrogance almost costs him his career.

Legends Gary Cooper and Teresa Wright reunite in this wacky romantic comedy about a young man who receives some startling news on the eve of his wedding...he's a father! It's irresistible fun that will make you laugh and cry. Frank Morgan co-stars!
