In the first of three episodes on TROUBLE IN PARADISE, Tanya Goldman joins us to discuss two key works in the Gentleman Thief subgenre - the aforementioned TROUBLE IN PARADISE as well as William Dieterle’s JEWEL ROBBERY! We cover the work of William Powell, Kay Francis, Herbert Marshall, and Miriam Hopkins, the differing ways in which each film deals with morality and ethics in the midst of all the pre-code transgressions, the love language of thievery, and plenty else!

I am always amazed at how Herbert Marshall's loss of one leg is so well hidden in his films.

Miriam Hopkins and Kay Francis were good friends and both were at the height of their careers in the early 1930's. Ernst Lubitsch considered Miriam Hopkins his favorite Actress! Quite a complement.

Miriam Hopkins had a very long and successful career with an ending role in "The Chase". (her actual last film was Hollywood Horror House but was never formally released). She starred opposite Marlon Brando and in their primary scene upstages the great Brando. Miriam Hopkins was a good friend with Tennessee Williams and starred in his first staged performance in Boston, Mass based on "The Fugitive Kind" Her role in the "Outer Limits" (Don't Open til Doomsday) on television cemented her lengthy career in the movies, Stage, Radio and television. She opened the second season of LUX Radio Theater on 2 separate occasions.

Miriam Hopkins was the only comic relief in "The Heiress". Hopkins and Montgomery Clift were great friends.

William Powell lived out his long life in Palm Springs, California. He and his charming wife were noted for giving some of the most elegant parties within the Palm Springs community.

Kay Francis stated she did any film offered to her as her primary goal was money. She was not picky as to film roles and just took whatever role the Studio wanted her to star in which in the end (around 1968) did not work to her advantage even though at her death she left her million dollar estate to the Seeing Eye Dog organization.

There is a biography or autobiography on Kay Francis of which can't remember the title, but seems it was "I can't Wait to be Forgotten". Let me know if you can remember the correct title.
