Madam Satan (1930)
4/10
All Over the Place - Madam Satan

This is an interesting film from a visual standpoint, but as a script, it is a mess from beginning to end. There are some funny cracks (no pun intended). But the primary plot of a wife trying to win back the affections of a wayward husband is an unacceptable PC situation for modern audiences. In an earlier sexist age, it may have been an acceptable premise, but in the 21st century, the heroine would have several affairs herself, and eventually just divorce the knucklehead. The humor is fine, but then it goes off the rails with bizarre fashion and catastrophic occurrences which really do not push the plot forward. Interesting because of the visuals.
