How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A pre-code melodrama about the injustice of social scandal, where a woman's reputation becomes her prison regardless of her innocence. It's a portrait of how class prejudice weaponizes morality against women.
