Plot[edit]

Dorothy Haley (Sally Eilers) and Edna Driggs (Minna Gombell) are store models, first seen in bridal clothes at their job one afternoon. After work Dorothy fends off her boss, who wants to take her for a ride, by claiming to be married to a prizefighter. The girls then go to Coney Island. On the return steamboat trip, the women make a bet about attracting a certain man's attention, and proceed to annoy him by playing a ukulele. This man is Eddie Collins (James Dunn); after his initial grouchy reaction to the women, he slowly forms a connection with Dorothy and sees her home. Eddie works in a radio shop and dreams of having a shop on his own, for which he has been saving.

On a subsequent date, Eddie keeps Dorothy in his apartment past 4 a.m.; she fears the reaction of her abusive elder brother, who has been her guardian. Eddie proposes marriage as a solution and Dorothy joyfully accepts. Her brother calls her a tramp and evicts her from her home. Dorothy suffers some anxiety the next day, when Eddie seems to have disappeared; he then turns up, having made arrangements for a new place to live, and the two are happily married.

Dorothy confides to Edna ten weeks later that she is pregnant, but is reluctant to tell Eddie the news when she learns that he is ready to open his new shop, an expensive commitment. Instead she tells Eddie that she'd like to return to work, to which he objects. Wrongly guessing that she wants a larger place to live, Eddie cancels his plans for the shop in favor of a lavish new building and new furnishings, increasing Dorothy's worries. By the time Eddie finally finds out he is to become a father, the two mutually misunderstand that the other is unhappy about the pregnancy, resulting in a strain on their marriage. The strain intensifies when Eddie stays away from home while earning extra money and arranging for the best possible doctor, all without telling Dorothy. After the child is born, Dorothy plans to leave Eddie; however, before that can happen the misunderstanding is cleared up, with joyful results.

Production[edit]

Director Frank Borzage wanted Spencer Tracy for the lead role, but Fox would not agree to this. Several studios beside Fox were interested in the rights to the novel and play, including Pathé, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Universal Pictures, but they were scared off by the Hays Office's insistence that any film made from the material would have difficulty meeting their standards. Fox, however, was able to provide the censors with a treatment which earned their approval.^[1] Costumes were by Dolly Tree.

Awards and honors[edit]

Bad Girl was nominated for an Oscar for Best Picture in 1931. Borzage won the Academy Award for Best Director, and Edwin J. Burke won for his adaptation. The film was also listed as one of the ten best films of the year by Film Daily.^[1]
