- Social Register is an American 1934 pre-Code comedy-drama musical film starring Colleen Moore. The film re-united her with her old friend and one of the first directors to give her film career a start, Marshall Neilan. The film was based on the 1931 play of the same name by Anita Loos and John Emerson. Silent film director William C. de Mille worked as associate producer.
Chorus-girl Patsy Shaw crashes a high-society party and meets playboy Charlie Breen; they fall in love and are soon on their merry way to wedded bliss. However, Charlie's snobbish mother does not think that Patsy is worthy of her precious son--and she sets out to prove it.
Very enjoyable. First movie for me with Colleen Moore. Now I'm hooked. So many good movies, so little time. Thanks for bringing these old films to my living room.

Its magic to watch those movies i was born in 1947 l love them ❤❤❤❤❤
Yup, another one from my wish list! I had trouble taping this on VHS from a television airing years ago, so I never got to see the ending.
When this moview was filmed,
Mom was 5! Awe ... 💛
Her career was on the wane and the next one, The Scarlet Letter, sealed her fate. She had a good long run and retired a very rich woman.
Thank you for the film, Social Register, with Colleen Moore from 1934, a year that saw her do Success at Any Price and The Scarlet Letter, as well. The dark and lovely Ms. Moore had difficulty dealing with overhead microphones while doing talkies, a far cry from working silent films. This led to her leaving Hollywood to devote time to her growing family and business ventures. You might say she profited well in retirement.
A lovely movie. Thank you.
She was so good and innocent. Easy prey. Happens all of the time.
Charles Winninger had a very Brooks Brother look. He was handsome.
The 1st time I saw this pre-code gem, it occurred to me that he would've given a very
good performance as The Wizard of Oz in MGM's 1939 musical adaption. He was, in
that year, 55. So he was just 6 years older than Frank Morgan.
Love your movies, Pedro.
This is the first sound film of Colleen's I've seen. The trademark bob is gone, but the face remains lovely. With First National merged into Warners, she moved over to Columbia, a step down in studio ranking. She did OK in talkies, but had amassed quite a bit of money from her business dealings and retired from films not long after this.
The Power and the Glory is maybe her best talkie, I highly recommend it :)
TCM did a favor last Sunday and ran a triple-header of her films, including the long-thought-lost "Why Be Good?", restored by UCLA and with the original Vitaphone soundtrack, "The Scarlet Letter", and an RKO talkie, "Success at Any Price", where she actually took fourth billing. No doubt she was a major star, but not as naughty as Clara Bow or Louise Brooks. She was able to step away when she wanted to and wasn't cast away.
@@rjmcallister1888I’m surprised, I used to watch tcm all the time, but once osbourne, died they play “classics” from the 1990s and 2000s. Quit watching.
What a script...fantastic 🇬🇧
Poor Ross Alexander (July 27th, 1907 - January 2nd, 1937),. He was one of many actors in the
pre-code era who had to keep keep a certain secret; one that had a very severe effect on his acting career. So he wasn't able to prove his talent. And despite 3 marriages, he was always in
serious debt. For better or worse, he retired after just 3 years, by putting a gun to his head.
Colleen was gorgeous
Loved that “Ditty”
Hip hip hooray😊
Can't understand a word.
Good comedy drama ❤🎉😊
