Smart Woman

The D.A. has taken a bullet and attorney Paula Rogers (Constance Bennett) has taken the case, defending the shooter who has a history of racketeering and blackmail. Opposing Rogers is special prosecutor Robert Larrimore (Brian Aherne), who recently proposed marriage to her. Will his feelings for her compromise his efforts? You cant compromise with truth, Larrimore declares. This polished melodrama is rife with elements typical of the eras womans picture: a female in a mans world; a suave male lead; sumptuous sets; ample amounts of romance, menace and mystery and for good measure, a surprising courtroom revelation about Rogers past. Court is in session for an intriguingly Smart Woman.
