St. Louis Woman (DVD)

Jim Warren is a promising young medical student and star of St. Louis University's unbeaten football team. Jim and a few team mates head to a local nightclub to see beautiful singer "St. Louie" Lou perform. The boys get into a fight and after the newspapers get hold of the story, Jim is thrown off the team and out of school. Several years later Lou bumps into Jim on the street and discovers that he has degenerated into a skid row bum. She feels sorry for the fallen star and uses her influence to get him a tryout with a professional team and a final shot at redemption.

A college football star at the University of Alabama, Johnny Mack Brown left a career as a professional athlete for Hollywood, where he found work as a leading man opposite starlets such as Greta Garbo and Joan Crawford. His portrayal of Billy the Kid in the 1930 King Vidor western of the same name marked a change in direction for Brown, who would continue on for two decades as a successful cowboy star.
