Savage House - 2026 - UK

Savage House - 2026 - 7/10 

 
Sir Chauncey Savage married into his title.
He had been working class trash, while Lady Savage came from a noble, if ruined, house.
Together, they squandered or pawned all remaining valuables.
If only a royal would visit, that would boost social esteem and replenish their fortunes.
This is a gloriously wicked comedy, sprinkled with political observations.
But mostly greed.  Along with avarice, gluttony, lust, thievery.
Not sloth, however.  Their industry could be inspiring.

Hell Harbor - 1930 - USA

Hell Harbor - 1930 - 5/10 

 
After murdering for a  cash wad, Morgan is blackmailed into selling his daughter to the head grifter.
Hot-blooded Anita wants none of that, thank you very much.
She intends to kill the moneyed American as soon as he drops anchor.
Until she decides he is too good looking to kill.
Maybe he can sail her to Havana.  Maybe he will marry her.
Creaky Pre-Code depends on Lupe Velez; when she is on, this sizzles.
