Millie

Scarlet Dawn
(1932)Douglas Fairbanks Jr. and Nancy Carroll star as Russian aristocrats who flee to Constantinople and pose as commoners to escape the Bolshevik Revolution. But the Baron Nikita Krasnoff (Fairbanks--The Prisoner of Zenda) cannot adjust to his new life of poverty and obscurity and soon begins an affair with a devious woman and a life of crime as a con artist. Nearly losing everything, and being exposed as frauds, the married couple eventually must again rely on each other escape with their very lives in this towering romantic epic.

The Matrimonial Bed
(1930)"Oh, it's Adolphe! It must be!" Lovely Juliet Corton (Florence Eldridge) is sure the dashing coiffeur who just arrived to style her hair is her husband, presumed dead in a railway crash five years earlier. The dashing stylist (vaudeville star Frank Fay) is sure she's nuts. But what if Juliet is right? What if a hypnotist could restore Adolphe's memory of their marriage, lost after the crash? Who could possibly object to such a happy ending? Perhaps Juliet's new husband (James Gleason), who is not eager to vacate the matrimonial bed. Complications abound in this racy Pre-Code farce that also includes a wacky set of friends and servants, a second case of amnesia, a nice hot bath, the wife Adolphe acquired after the accident and two sets of twins, all spinning merrily along under the expert hand of one of cinema's greatest directors, Michael Curtiz ("Casablanca," "Yankee Doodle Dandy").

Riptide
(1934)Norma Shearer headlines this domestic drama as a chorus girl who weds a British nobleman before trying to start anew with a young man who loves her. Footloose and fancy-free American heiress Mary has been married to Lord Rexford (Herbert Marshall) for five years when, urged on by her fun-loving aunt, she vacations on the Riviera, where she reunites with her ex-boyfriend Tommie (Robert Montgomery). A drunken mistake leads to scandal and possible divorce, but Mary strives to make everything right again. Walter Brennan plays a small comedic role.
