All Women Have Secrets (1939) 480p

Comedy | Drama | USA | B&W | 68min Cast: Virginia Dale, Joseph Allen Jr., Jeanne Cagney, Peter Lind Hayes, Betty Moran, John Arledge, Lawrence Grossmith, Janet Waldo, Veronica Lake (as Constance Keane) All Women Have Secrets affords a rare film starring role for James Cagney's talented sister Jeanne Cagney. Set on a college campus, the story concerns the trials and tribulations of married student John (Joseph Allen) and his pregnant wife Kay (Cagney). In addition to their existing financial woes, Kay faces dismissal from her nightclub singing job as her waistline expands. The 'secret' refers to the fact that Kay has been withholding the fact that John is about to become a father, lest he offer to quit school to support them both. Veronica Lake's first credited movie role (as Constance Keane). A small role to be sure, but within a couple of years (and a name change) she'd be starring in The Glass Key and I Married A Witch.
