Early in her legendary Hollywood career (from Fritz Lang to Tim Burton), the luminous Sylvia Sidney starred in these 2 passion-packed, Pre-Code melodramas. Confessions of a Co-Ed (1931) – Through the intimate pages of her diary, Patricia Harper (Sidney) recalls her scandalous time at co-educational Stafford College. She becomes pregnant by the man she loves; but when circumstances prevent their union, she’s forced to make a devastating choice. Featuring a rare appearance by Bing Crosby and his musical “Rhythm Boys.” Ladies of the Big House (1931) – Young florist Kathleen Storm (Sidney) tries to save her husband (Gene Raymond) from the electric chair after both are sent to prison for a murder they didn’t commit. Suffering vicious treatment from the prison inmates, Kathleen quickly becomes desperate to escape and tell the world of their innocence. You’ll be gripped by the taut, sizzling drama in these rare films starring, as one Paramount advertisement declared, “the screen’s finest emotional actress—Sylvia Sidney!”
