Starting May 6, @MoMAFilm is streaming three films from its prized Fox Film archives. All you need to see them is a membership (through which you help support the upkeep of said important archives). https://www.moma.org/calendar/film/5304
There's SHERLOCK HOLMES (1932), directed by one of @dave_kehr's favorites, William K. Howard, the greatest innovative auteur you've never (or barely) heard of.
QUICK MILLIONS (Rowland Brown, 1931), a sharp, clinical gangster story with an early performance by Spencer Tracy that suggests a whole different direction for his career (ditto George Raft's work).
And finally, the great Raoul Walsh's ME AND MY GAL (1932), pre-Code Depression comedy, with Tracy again and blonde baby-faced Joan Bennett, already a firecracker of a comedienne.
