How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A pre-code comedy about a sharp, worldly woman navigating desire and opportunity in 1890s New Orleans with characteristic wit and flair. It's a brisk, entertaining showcase of charm and cunning in a decadent setting.
