Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Red Dust is a 1932 film directed by Victor Fleming and starring Clark Gable, Jean Harlow, and Mary Astor.Dennis Carson (Gable) manages a rubber plantation in French Indochina. A prostitute named Vantine (Harlow), who is seeking to avoid the authorities in Saigon, arrives at the plantation, having taken the boat upriver. She and Dennis flirt for a little bit before starting a relationship. That relationship is interrupted when engineer Gary Willis and his wife Barbara (Astor) arrive. Barbara is a classy, sophisticated lady, the exact opposite of the wisecracking Vantine. Dennis finds an excuse to send Gary on a difficult surveying expedition deep in the jungle, while Barbara, who stays behind, proves receptive to Dennis's charms.Red Dust was a big hit for MGM, and it made Gable the most popular leading man in Hollywood. Gable and Harlow starred together several more times before Harlow's untimely death at the age of 26 in 1937. 21 years later, Gable again starred in The Remake, Mogambo, with Ava Gardner in the Harlow part and Grace Kelly in the Astor part. Red Dust has a place in the National Film Registry.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Betty and Veronica | |
| Red Dust / int_94e4c8ab | comment |
Betty and Veronica: A typical example with the proper, reserved, high-class Barbara as Betty and the earthy, brassy, much less reserved Vantine as Veronica. Hair color inverted with a brunette Betty and blonde Veronica. | |

Bathtub Scene | |
| Red Dust / int_a8c50563 | comment |
Bathtub Scene: One of the most famous in movie history, possibly the Trope Maker, occurs when Vantine takes a bath in the rain barrel. Much to Dennis's consternation, she doesn't bother lowering the curtains around the rain barrel bath. (Legend has it that Harlow stood up and flashed the crew, causing director Fleming to confiscate the film.) | |

Ambiguously Gay: Hoy is way too interested in Vantine's underwear. Vantine makes a remark about how "you even find them in the jungle". | |

Asian Speekee Engrish: Hoy, Dennis's servant, is a very, very unfortunate stereotype, with the broken English, the servile attitude, and the bad teeth. | |
