Merrily We Go To Hell (1932)
A complex look at open relationships, marriage, and alcoholism. Dorothy Arzner broke new ground as a woman behind the camera. I watched this film for the first time last year, but it was even better on a rewatch last night.
It starts with a lot of fun and it clearly wears its pre-Code sensibilities on its sleeve for an act or two, but then the film gets serious, sad and heavy, with the charming alcoholic lead (Fredric March) making a mess of himself before the woman who loves him (Sylvia Sidney) and our very eyes. Human and real, it pulls no punches.
There was a greater diversity of human experience and experimentation during the pre-code era, even when the films weren't objectively good or deep, that was stamped out under the code and it's a shame.
