fredricmarch:Claudette Colbert and Fredric March in “Honor Among Lovers (1931),” directed by Dorothy Arzner.This was the second film that Claudette and Fredric did together after “Manslaughter (1930).” This also featured Ginger Rogers in one of her earliest films.While the picture was in production, it went a lot of title changes. It was first called “Sex Business,” then “Strictly Business,” and “Another Man’s Wife.” Until the Production Code Administration intervened and it was finalized that the title would be “Honor Among Lovers.”The ending of this film was probably different but Dorothy Arzner did a daring move by changing it, to Claudette’s character running off to take the world with her boss, before she had divorced her first husband. They said this was the mark of Arzner’s success that the studio did not interfere with the filming’s ending. [x] -- source link
