Behold My Wife (1934 pe-code) 

Wasn't she a drop dead stunning actress, dammm!

Notable to me for the presence of Monroe Owsley and a very young Ann Sheridan. Owsley was truly original. Almost always cast as a heel, but a smooth charming one. Died way too young. And was there anyone prettier than the early 20s Ann Sheridan ? So vigorous and healthy-looking and that beautiful smile. An oft-forgotten fact about Sylvia Sidney, definitely one of Hollywood's most intellectual , was that she made a lot of public appeals for the plight of European Jews in the 30s, way before most people sensed that things were about to get very very bad for them. Sidney was not afraid to speak up. Fine actor and even finer humanitarian.

Raquel Her acting ability as an Indian during this time period was actually decent, but you would rarely see a native Indian woman this beautiful (due to the ridiculous application from gobs of make-up!) Hollywood was notorious for their constant application of makeup which I find ridiculous & unreal. Just look at the lipstick she wore constantly & consistently! I suppose it was necessary during this era, but eventually film makers finally got it in their heads that overly made up women in every film presentation did not give the audience the true prediction of reality during rugged circumstances!

you clearly have no concept of the idea that anyone but yourself could know what they are doing.....early film would leave you looking featureless....hence the makeup.....see keaton and chaplain films.

@@scottleft3672 Film was panchromatic by the late twenties. The makeup needed in the 'teens was no longer necessary. BTW: Screens were still 12' or at most 16' in the thirties, even in huge theaters like Radio City Music Hall. Projection lamps were not bright enough to project larger. So makeup still had to be a bit more dramatic than we are used to.

Especially considering this was only 70 years before the full-on genocide of the remaining Western tribes.

Steve Weinstein With the ridiculous over-abundance of make up! This in itself is far from the reality of a native Indian!

some one who saw an understood the show as I did a head of it's time. seems good for the early times.

Ann Sheridan Fan Club Ann Sheridan - an actress who should be in the pantheon of greats. No one was earthier and certainly in the group of select beauties.

daniel stanwyck Needless to say, I agree!

Of those 16 films that she made in 1934, this is the first one in which she received screen credit for her role.

The best comment I've read out of them all.

How superior white folks are in this movie. One of the 1st of the land she was! What kinda woman did they expect to see, a pale face blonde!? I loved this movie!!! Bravo! Bravo!

The opening 15 minutes of that film were magnificent with Jagger.

There never was such a time.....people do terrible things ....often becase ....as they will freely admit....it is the lesser of 2 evils....from their perspective....and the second generation after.....can never know how it was.....unles they read a lot of dairies,minutes,testimony....as well as written accounts by historians....and even then.....our own granchildren.....will hold us up for ridicule if we neglect their education...and even then.....we say.....devil or deep blue sea.

+janice Baksh Love the stylish 30's. Not a tank top in sight. Not a tattoo, no baseball caps worn backwards by fat slobs walking around with a Big Gulp in rapper pants. Not one smelly excuse for a human being in sight. Amazing!

+Robby Bonter exactly right

At the height of the Depression, people wanted escape from grim reality into a fantasy land where people's only problem was how to have the most fun with their wealth.

Yes Jeanette MacDonald was married to him and his reported that he used to beat her

Seems like just the opposite -- the film has been "destabilized." I wish people would think twice before posting these.

john alt...in the ending scene, the police are listening in on everything the husband n' wife are saying as one of the policeman states, "ain't this some invention though, it can pick up the slightest sound." So a happy ending for Michael and Tonita; Not so for the sister Diane.

You're right. Its Code number is 372. catalog.afi.com/Catalog/moviedetails/907 and members.chello.nl/~a.degreef/Filmnummers.html

+daniel stanwyck- Get over yourself, chum.

+MrUhwoody Oh,brother, listen to you! You ain't no chum of mine, chum.

+daniel stanwyck That's tellin' 'em : ) Go right on enjoying yourself, my friend. MrUhwoody is a sad piece of work, imo. I like reading your comments. And you have the same last name as my favorite old Hollywood actress, too.

+flyinspirals Thanks. She's mine, too. Every now and then I tune into this movie because I like the title, forgetting I saw it before and just came upon your comment to my comment. flyinspirals: nice name. Perhaps I'll run into you again.

Yes Stanwyck, I am just agreeing on the actor name! Yes the lines were quite offensive since I am Native but I loved her she was drop dead stunning, and the actor was handsome too!
