Ladies of Leisure

Jerry Strong (Ralph Graves, Submarine) is the wealthy son of stuffy but permissive parents who allow Jerry to follow his ambition to be a painter. When he hires party girl Kay Arnold (Barbara Stanwyck, DOUBLE INDEMNITY) to be a model for one of his paintings, the two fall in love despite their obvious differences. But eventually, class distinctions push Kay away — back toward her old life, one just shy of prostitution. Directed by Frank Capra (MR. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON), LADIES OF LEISURE was also one of Stanwyck's first roles and the one that made her a star. Newly remastered.
