Description by OLDIES.com:
This courtroom drama sees law school graduate Carroll Aiken (Claire Trevor) desperately trying to save a case from her overly confident and cynical colleague. The life of a poor woman and her murdered father add fuel to this unbelievable legal tale of justice.
Product Description:
Admidst a sea of melodramatic and unbelievable courtroom dramas, CAREER WOMAN is distinguished by its comparative realism. Law school graduate Carroll Aiken (Claire Trevor) is idealistic; her colleague Barry Conant (Michael Whalen) is cynical and mercenary. Despite their ethical differences, they team up to defend downtrodden Gracie Clay (Isabel Jewell) on a charge of murdering her sadistic father. The grandstanding Conant reprimands the jury for their prejudices against the poor, but this strategy fails miserably. Carroll is forced to apologize to the court, then goes on to win the case through the simple expedient of sticking to the facts. CAREER WOMAN well be the best "lady lawyer" film of the 1930s, with characters acting like human beings instead of Hollywood stereotypes.
