Illicit sex. Glorified vice. Crime that pays. You can't do that said the film industry's Production Code. But in the pre-Code era, Hollywood could -- and did -- with lots of classic style. On Disc 1 of this set of five pre-Code sizzlers, Norma Shearer is The Divorcee -- her Best Actress Oscar -winning* role -- who believes sexual freedom is for women too. And she's also A Free Soul who falls for gangster Clark Gable (and is defended in a murder trial by Best Actor Academy Award winner* Lionel Barrymore). Disc 2 delivers platinum-haired Bette Davis in Three on a Match's searing tale of adultery and Ruth Chatterton as a tycoon who buys herself boy toys in Female. And on Disc 3, Barbara Stanwyck defies sinister Clark Gable to protect an endangered child in Night Nurse.
