Blood Money (1933 film)


Blood Money is a 1933 American PreCode crime drama about a crooked bail bondsman named Bill Bailey, played by George Bancroft, with Chick Chandler as crime boss Drury Darling, Judith Anderson as Drurys sister and Baileys lover, and Frances Dee as a thrillseeking, larcenous beauty who fatefully catches Baileys eye.

Dee, normally cast in wholesome roles, described Talbert in the 2002 Turner Classic Movies documentary Complicated Women as ... a rather weird character, to say the least. She was a kleptomaniac, a nymphomaniac, and anything in between.New York Times critic Mordaunt Hall was unimpressed, writing, This whimsical little tale of thievery, thuggery and attempted slaughter was mistaken for entertainment by Darryl Zanuck. He appreciated the skills of many of the actors, but thought the plot lacked logic and characterized the film overall as flat stuff. ........
