Ep 6: Ann Dvorak in The Strange Love of Molly Louvain (1932)

Ann Dvorak plays a character who inherited her mother's bad reputation. On the run from the law, and down on her luck, she falls for a fast-talking reporter played by Lee Tracy. Molly Louvain side-steps a romantic triangle to present a woman who draws strength from forgiveness to do the right thing. I close the episode with a brief excerpt from Christina Rice's biography Ann Dvorak: Hollywood's Forgotten Rebel.
