Bad Boy (1935)

Directed by John G. Blystone
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Fox Movie Channel)

James Dunn is a likable fellow who hangs out at the pool hall. He makes money as a hustler, and there are some trick shots on display. His girlfriend Dorothy Wilson won't take him home to meet the parents until he gets a real job. Since this is 1935 jobs are tough to find. They get married in secret, but mom sets her up with another guy who has money. It's a bit too innocent and fluffy to be taken seriously, though Dunn and Wilson are appealing.
