Loom out, Jake Luva! That sinuous moll cuddling up to you on the dance floor is not the floozy she seems. She's Bonnie Jordan, ex-society girl and undercover reporter, investigating a murder that has your fingerprints all over it. She has what it takes, all right - to take you and your crime empire down. As Bonnie and Jake, Joan Crawford and Clark Gable exude plenty of pre-code sensuality in their first screen teaming. Gable is fifth-billed, but the moment he and Crawford go into a clinch, there is no question who in the film could match her star power. Crawford and Gable went on to make seven more films together. And each smoldered with the red-hot chemistry originally sparked in "Dance, Fools, Dance".

Yes! More Joan is always warranted.

I haven't seen this before, but the fact that this transfer is sourced from the original camera negative, for a movie that's ninety-two years old, intrigues me!

Day 1!

Love the cover art, and its bold red color.

Pretty nice sounding extras too. The include MGM documentary "Hollywood: The Dream Factory" is from 1972, and is 51 minutes long, so that's pretty cool to get it in HD

This was on TCM this morning when I went to bed. This must not have been from the new restoration because it had blemishes and didn't look like a new scan. I thought it was odd.
