About Reckless Decision
The teenage daughter of a puritanical Reverend promises him she will not marry until she is older, but after a night of heavy drinking she wakes up to find she has a husband.
Directed by Howard Higgin, Reckless Decision leans on a strong ensemble — Barbara Kent, Don Dillaway, Leila McIntyre — 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 1933.
