Ladies of Leisure (1930) is a Frank Capra film, starring Barbara Stanwyck, Marie Prevost, and Ralph Graves.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })This early sound film follows the story of prostitute Kay (Stanwyck) who falls for WASP painter Jerry (Graves) and their struggle to love despite their class difference.This film began the director-actor relationship between Stanwyck and Capra which would result in three more pre-code films note The Miracle Woman, Forbidden, The Bitter Tea of General Yen and Meet John Doe.Fun fact: There is a sound and a silent version of this film (characteristic of this transitional period in film history), but whether with or without spoken dialogue, both versions highlight Joseph Walker’s gorgeous cinematography.

Defrosting Ice Queen: Once Jerry treats Kay like a human rather than an object, she lets her tough girl façade down.

Bungled Suicide: The idea of being Bill’s “party-girl” and leaving Jerry for good, leaves Kay with only one choice (in her mind, anyways). She jumps off starboard but is saved by the crew.

Dating What Daddy Hates: Kay, a former prostitute, is not worthy for the extremely rich and WASP-y Strongs.
