Double Door (1934)

When old-money Rip van Brett (Kent Taylor) proposed to working nurse Anne Darrow (Evelyn Venable), his domineering half-sister Victoria (Mary Morris) didn't hold back about how unworthy she found the match. After the new Mrs. Van Brett moved into the 5th Avenue family manse, she'd find that there were no limits to her sister-in-law's psychological-and physical-cruelty. Long-sought pre-Code shocker co-stars Ann Revere in her screen debut; Charles Vidor directs. 75 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; audio commentary.
