STREET OF CHANCE (1930) ¢ ¢ ¢
D: John Cromwell
William Powell, Kay Francis, Regis Toomey,
Jean Arthur, Bruce Benedict, Stanley Fields
William Powell plays a gambler whose wife (Kay Francis) wants him to go straight, which he promises to do, as soon as he settles some unfinished business. She's heard that before, and says so, but he says he means it this time, he just has one more thing to take care of and they'll get out of town. Will he really be back in time to catch the noon train? Will she be waiting when he gets there? Two things you can take away from this movie: 1) Don't gamble, and 2) If you do, bet the percentages.
