About Film: Women and Cocaine presents Love Me Tonight (1932)
This musical comedy, directed by Rouben Mamoulian and packed with pre-code innuendo, stars Maurice Chevalier as a Parisian tailor who poses as a baron in order to collect a sizeable bill from an aristocrat, only to fall in love with Jeanette Macdonald’s aloof young princess.
The film will be preceded by a short introduction, and followed by a raffle.
Women and Cocaine Presents is a film night presented by curator Caroline Cassin at The Cinema Museum to celebrate the fierce and liberated women of Pre code cinema. From the period of 1930 to 1934, before the introduction of censorship, women were depicted in roles with a frankness and sex-positivity that remains rare even today. These newly independent women pushed gender boundaries as they pursued their own economic freedom and excitement, defying the previous Victorian ideals of domesticity, sexual purity and religion. Hollywood soon caught on and began to represent these women on screen, and each month we celebrate a different woman from that era.
“My father warned me about men & booze, but he never mentioned a word about women & cocaine” – Tallulah Bankhead.
