CLASSICS-The Sign of the Cross

Front Row Classics welcomes Ryan Bijan this week. Ryan is founder and host of Cowtown Movie Classics which curates classic films for movie goers in Fort Worth, TX. Brandon and Ryan are discussing Cecil B DeMille's 1932 pre-code epic film, The Sign of the Cross. The film, starring Fredric March, Claudette Colbert and Charles Laughton, perfectly illustrates DeMille's penchant for storytelling and grandeur. The film also features several scenes that wouldn't have gotten past the Hays Code only a couple years later.
