    The audio quality is good but if they meant the video when they say "good quality", well, that is sarcasm. The video compression is Horrible. Or maybe it came form a VHS tape and I just forgot how bad analog tape looks. But not a bad movie, most anything with William Powell is worth watching.

      They both went straight at the end. He had no way to support the rich girl in the manner she was accustomed to, and her family might have dumped her if she married a middle-aged ex-blackmailer. The moll loved him through thick and thin. She was his equal.

And to throw that ghastly, conniving, little 🤬 overboard 🤨💯‼️ One who supposed to have been more-like of the gentle persuasion, since being a woman.
      But my thoughts were also like, if only the ending would have turned out better and it then having been "a feel-good movie" 🌤️.

      Powell and Lombard were divorced in 1933. It was six years until she married Clark Gable in 1939. In the meantime, she 'dated' just about everyone in Hollywood, including her favorite stud, Gary Cooper, who died of prostate cancer (!) in 1960.

Earlier she had been challenging the use of the term “woke” as the pejorative it is currently. When I suggested that many generally agree that said civil war occurred in the 19th Century she said that then she was right, it was as she said, 19something, maybe 1950. At this point it seemed she might not have sufficient patience and there would be too much to explain. Given that she was in management, a kind of trouble shooter for a well known fast food chain, one wonders if her special knowledge of history led to management challenges.
