Her character is the wife of a secondary character, not exactly a break into the minds of film-goers.

She's a good girl at heart here, but street-wise as the room mate of Stanwyck.

She's great in this, full of energy, character, and beauty. She even has a song which she speak-sings, and very well too.

Blondell plays the girlfriend to Robinson in this gangster film, a supporting role.

She plays a prostitute at the end of this film. Her wisecracks make for a better ending than would have been without her.

Joan Blondell has an interesting part as a dizzy lesbian friend of Millie played by Helen Twelvetrees. It's a small part but worth seeing for big fans of Joan's.

Joan plays Aunt Sissy, sort of the black sheep of the family. She's been married several times but she's very family oriented and very pretty.

A pretty good book about her life. It illustrates what a hard worker Joan was, and how it sometimes hurt her in her career.
