Dangerous (1935)

Franchot Tone plays Don Bellows, an architect that has everything going for him. He has a beautiful fiancé Gail (Margaret Lindsay) and he's about to begin a landmark project that will give his name a prominent permanence in New York City. However, while out one evening with Gail and some friends (including polo player Dick Foran), he thinks he sees an actress whose performances had once influenced the direction of his life. Instead of going home with them, he excuses himself in order to see if the drunk woman in the corner of a bar is the aforementioned actress. It was, and so he meets Joyce Heath (Bette Davis), who is used to this sort of embarrassment by now and wants only for him to buy her more drinks. He does, but he also then takes her to his home in the country where he hopes that she will sober up. Don can't help but be attracted to her. When the weather makes his return to the city impossible, he returns home and she seduces him....
