The Gorgeous Hussy

Starring: Crawford, Joan and Taylor, Robert

The sassy daughter of a local innkeeper, Peggy O'Neill (Joan Crawford) uses her smarts and good looks -- not to mention her close personal friendship with President Andrew Jackson (Lionel Barrymore) -- to make a scandalous impression on Washington's power elite in this lavish adaptation of Samuel Hopkins Adams' bestselling novel. Co-starring a legendary leading man lineup (Robert Taylor, Franchot Tone, Melvyn Douglas and James Stewart), The Gorgeous Hussy earned two 1936 Oscar nominations (Best Cinematography and Supporting Actress Beulah Bondi as the First Lady) and marked Crawford's sole sound-era appearance in a costume period piece. Barrymore would reprise his Jackson role in 1952's Lone Star, a Clark Gable Western that was also the veteran actor's final screen performance.
