      Movie Info

      Corrupt alcoholic attorney Tom Cardigan (John Barrymore) is one of the best lawyers around, commanding the courtroom like a stage and often winning his cases. Mobster Valentine Powers (William "Stage" Boyd), who employs Cardigan and put him through school, asks him to represent a woman, June Perry (Helen Twelvetrees), accused of prostitution. Cardigan agrees. But he never expected to fall for her, which is problematic since he's angling to become governor and will need the right kind of wife.
