The Gorgeous Hussy
US (1936): Drama
In this tale of political drama and romantic scandals, Joan Crawford plays Andrew Jackson's (Lionel Barrymore) mistress, who has both romantic and political aspirations, and winds up embarrassing everyone around her. A great cast -- that includes Robert Taylor, Franchot Tone, Melvyn Douglas, James Stewart, Beulah Bondi, Louis Calhern, Sidney Toler and Gene Lockhart -- beautiful costumes, and rich setting can't save this somewhat tedious period piece. Directed by Clarence Brown for MGM. (amctv.com)
