The Working Man

This obscure &quot;Bette Davis&quot; film is obscure enough that I had never seen it. I had heard that this was another of the minor programmers Davis made towards the beginning of the Warner Brothers career. I had also seen a number of George Arliss films and while I enjoyed them, I always thought Alriss&apos; style of theatrical acting was quite out of date in 1933. 

What a pleasant surprise! This was shown on TCM today, and is a cleverly written story about a man helps a rival company out of his problems due to his prior love for the late rival&apos;s late wife, and the fact that he met and like her children! This is not a typical Warner Brothers programmer....in many ways it&apos;s one of the brightest, most enjoyable Warner Brothers films of the period.

Gee, it would be swell to see Warners put it out on DVD.
