About West of Broadway
A wealthy soldier returns home after WWI, discovers his socialite fiancee no longer wants to marry him, and weds an admitted gold-digger he's just met after a night of drinking and partying.
Directed by Harry Beaumont, West of Broadway leans on a strong ensemble — John Gilbert, El Brendel, Lois Moran — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1931.
