New Year's Eve (1929)
This drips with sentimentality and is sticky with melodrama. You'll see a sick little brother and a suave villain who wears a silk dressing gown and lures innocent girls into his apartment. But you will be entranced by the perfectly slick way in which a thief extracts a hundred dollar bill from the pocket of the starving gal. Mary Astor gives a nice performance.
