We’re thrilled to welcome author and film professor Marsha Gordon to Front Row Classics for a deep dive into one of the most daring and progressive films of the pre-Code era: 1930’s The Divorcee. Join Brandon and Marsha as they explore this groundbreaking MGM production, directed by Robert Z. Leonard, which challenged societal norms and redefined female agency on screen. At the heart of the film is the luminous Norma Shearer, whose Oscar-winning performance remains a landmark in cinematic history. We’ll also shine a light on the film’s stellar supporting cast and the bold themes that made The Divorcee a trailblazer in Hollywood storytelling.
FEATURING: Brandon Davis and Marsha Gordon
