This is the movie that gave Clara Bow, the film world’s first sex symbol, her lasting nickname. She will allways be “The It Girl”. “IT” is roughly sex appeal, or in the words of novellist Elinor Glyn: “‘IT’ is that quality possessed by some which draws all others with its magnetic force. With ‘IT’ you will win all men if you are a woman—and all women if you are a man. ‘IT’ can be a quality of the mind as well as a physical attraction.”

Clara Bow has it all: sexiness, a down-to-earth quality, a sense of humor,a sense of vulnerability. Her enormous eyes, surely one of the greatest assets a silent actress ever possessed, can register wounded sorrow as readily as amusement or mischief. And of course, she is just as cute as a bug.

The plot has become a formula in romantic comedies over the last 78 years(!), from countless movies in the depression through to Pretty Woman: a working girl who wins the heart of a wealthy man. Here we get to see it before it became that cliché—and, more important, energized and enlivened by the presence of Clara Bow. Bow radiates energy that the screen can barely contain. She throws herself into everything with an almost impatient gusto—whether snatching up an apple to munch, racing for the exit when her shift at the store ends, or leaping out of a car as soon as it stops moving.

Plot:
Early Talkie titanness Dorothy Mackaill stars in this steamy pairing of racy dramas that tested the limits of the censors – and of marriage! The Office Wife features Mackaill playing a “welcome danger to the tired businessman” while sharing the screen alongside a scene-stealing and clothes-shedding Joan Blondell (in her sophomore screen appearance!). Party Husband finds ex-Ziegfield Girl Dorothy playing the better half of a thoroughly “modern marriage” whose openness threatens to bring about its premature end. Fellow Ziegfield alum Mary Doran plays the coquette whose intended conquest of the free-thinking hubby (James Rennie) starts to throw the couple’s “understanding” awry. From Warner Brothers!

The post Clarence G. Badger – Party Husband (1931) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

In Ropin’ Fool (1922) Rogers plays Ropes Reilly, a cowboy who ropes anything that moves until a lynch mob decides to use Reilly’s rope for a hanging party, with Reilly as the guest of honor. Motion Picture World wrote: “Plentiful use of slow motion photography shows how it is done and dispels any possible belief that the stunts are faked. No audience can help but marvel as Rogers throws a figure eight around a galloping horse, or lassoes a rat with a piece of string, or brings to term a cat melodiously inclined.” Later Rogers would wryly claim fame as America’s “Poet Lariat.”

Will Rogers repeats for the camera his famous roping tricks from the Ziegfeld Follies. With a white-painted rope to show up against his black horse Dopey, Rogers demonstrates running catches, wherein he ropes the fore legs of the galloping horse. Rogers also spins his trick lariat, jumping through it and back, and exhibiting the prowess that made his roping a national sensation.
