Product Description:
A 1930s Hollywood scandal is brought to the screen and back into the public view in this powerful film from director David Stenn. The story revolves around a party thrown by MGM, which descends into chaos as chorus girl Patricia Douglas is brutally raped. The story is subsequently buried by MGM, and Stenn's meticulous research has discovered the shocking lengths the studio went to in order to keep Douglas's story out of the media.
