Blogger Note: 
Follow this link for an interesting small article on TCM.com.  It covers a little of Clara Bow but also the differences that would most likely have been made to the film had it been made two years later after the Motion Picture Production Code were enforced as opposed to the "suggestions" they made prior to July 1, 1934 when the "Hayes Code" came into effect.


A Texas gal storms her way through life, brawling and boozing until her luck runs out, forcing her to learn the errors of her ways.
