Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe film rights to the novel were first offered to MGM, but they passed due to its racy content. Charles R. Rogers purchased the rights in August 1930 and produced this as an independent film but sold the distribution rights to RKO after he was made chief executive of RKO-Pathé in January 1931.
- GoofsThe beginning of the film is supposed to be set around 1914 and continues through the next 17 years until 1931, but the females of the cast wear strictly 1931 fashions all the way through. Likewise, the popular music played at the night club, as well as the interior design, is also strictly 1931, regardless of the year it's taking place.

Featured review
Creaky plot
This creaky antique reworking of Madame X is of interest mainly for its pre-code ingredients, blatant lesbianism, unpunished sex outside marriage etc., than any real value as a film. A lot of the film techniques are reminiscent of silents showing the growing pains of films continued into the early thirties. Part of the problem with the film is that all the men talk about how the heroine gets under a man's skin and they can't get over her but Helen Twelvetrees exudes none of the magnetism that makes that believable. The supporting players add more to the picture than the leads with Lilyan Tashman having the most fun as a party girl with Joan Blondell and Frank McHugh both starting out but already stealing scenes with their patented personas firmly in place. Except for the three of them the acting is extremely florid, especially towards the end. An almost unrecognizable Anita Louise, still beautiful but so young, is cast as Millie's daughter.
