The cast includes: Jean Harlow, Lewis Stone, Chester Morris, Leila Hyams, Una Merkel, May Robson, Henry Stephenson, Charles Boyer, and Harvey Clark. Plot: A racy classic that tells of the romantic, albeit illicit, adventures of Lil, the Legendre Company employee who provokes Bill to divorce his wife Irene to marry her. All the while she engages in an affair with Gaerste in an attempt to gain social fame, or notoriety, whichever. But Lil’s romantic interludes don’t end there as it seems her hunky chauffeur Albert may be able to turn her head more than once. But when all is said and done, will there be repercussions for all her sexual precociousness, and just how high are the stakes in such a game as Lil’s?
