She Done Him Wrong/My Little Chickadee Mae West 2006 DVD Top-quality

Double bill of classic Mae West films. In ‘She Done Him Wrong’ (1933), the inimitable West stars as Lady Lou – a wise broad nightclub owner with a string of paramours. One of them, a con dong stir in the big house, has escaped and is on his way to see his girl, unaware that she’s hardly been Mary Magdalene in his absence… In comedy western ‘My Little Chickadee’ (1940), West stars as Flower Belle Lee, yet another woman of easy virtue having to dine on bitter fruits of a life of sinful deceit. Suspected of having had biblical relations with the Masked Bandit, the mouthy hussy is run out of town on the first thing smoking by the good citizens of Little Bend. On the train, she befriends the respectable Cuthbert J’ Twillie (W.C. Fields) and marries him to clean up her name. Twillie becomes Sheriff of Greasewood city and settles down there with his (in her own opinion) unkissed bride.
