The three films from 1933 and 1934 were given the dreaded "C" rating: CONDEMNED by the Legion of Decency during it's first two years of operation.

1932's 'Night after Night' likely would have received a Condemned rating, but it was released a year before the Legion was formed and was one of the reasons why the Legion was formed.

Roman Catholics were forbidden to see these films.

All four are presented in their original uncut form.

'Night after Night' was a George Raft gangster movie.

Mae plays one of his old girlfriends, a supporting part - This is the only time she did not receive top billing.

And it's the only time that Mae did not receive a writing credit, even though she wrote the best line in the film - "Goodness had nothing to do with it."
