It’s been a pretty slim year for Ann Dvorak releases from the Warner Archive, but this week ends the drought with Housewife<\/a> <\/strong>now available for the first time.<\/p>\n

Housewife<\/strong><\/a> was one of nine films Ann appeared in for Warner Bros in 1934. While it’s not the best of the run, it probably allotted her the most screen time. After all, she is the housewife referenced in the title. George Brent is her weak-willed husband who needs Ann to serve as his backbone as he tries to move up in the world of advertising, and Bette Davis is the career girl who vies for Brent’s attention.<\/p>\n

As far as Ann Dvorak movies go, it’s actually one of her better titles, mainly because she’s in it more-so than a lot of the other WB flicks. Plus, her clothes are quite fashionable. As far as Bette Davis movies go, it’s probably not so great. I won’t give anything away except to say I hate the ending, but if you love Ann-D as I do, go ahead and order this one. Plus, the decorative box are is Anntastic.<\/p>\n

Now, if the Warner Archive would release The Crowd Roars,<\/a> Love is a Racket<\/a><\/strong>, and Massacre<\/strong><\/a> I would be a very happy gal.<\/p>\n
