The Bad Sister (1931)


Marianne falls in love with a con artist who has a hidden agenda.

Contrived and wooden melodrama with a remarkable cast, and no, Bette Davis doesn't play the title role.

Halliwell (no star): "A teenager potboiler of its day, remarkable only for its cast."

Maltin**: "...stilted early-talkie melodrama. Davis, in her film debut, is wasted..."
