This follow-up to MGM's 1928 hit Our Dancing Daughters reunites the female stars of the earlier film: Joan Crawford (in her last silent film) and Anita Page. Crawford is engaged to Douglas Fairbanks Jr. (her real-life husband at the time), but both she and her fiance fall in love with other people before the wedding takes place. Fairbanks Jr. renders Anita Page pregnant, but goes through with his wedding to Crawford all the same. Meanwhile, Crawford romances diplomat Rod La Rocque, partly in the hopes of advancing Doug's career, but mostly out of boredom. At any other studio, the romantic intrigues of Our Modern Maidens would be played out in small living rooms and cozy apartment houses. But MGM had a positive mania for placing its stars in the biggest, draftiest mansions possible, then dressing them to the nines in expensive costumes designed by the studio's own fashion arbiter Adrian. Our Modern Maidens proved successful, spawning a third in this loosely constructed series, Our Blushing Brides (one contemporary critic wondered aloud if the next film would be Our Dizzy Divorcees). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

With kohl-rimmed eyes and rouged lips, flapper fatale Billie Brown demands to live life on her terms, not society's. So she brazenly vamps a handsome diplomat in hopes of furthering her fiance?'s career. It's a perfect plan - until Billie loses her heart to the diplomat. In a follow-up to her trendsetting silent Our Dancing Daughters, Joan Crawford returns to the role of a reckless Jazz Age baby getting her kicks with torrid kisses and wild parties. Crawford is joined by her Daughters co-star Anita Page and by Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., who would soon wed his leading lady. An extra treat for film buffs: Fairbanks' hilarious impersonations of John Barrymore, John Gilbert and his own swashbuckling dad.
