Born to Be Bad

“Rules of the game meant nothing to her...she was "born to be bad" ..and she knew it!”

Letty Strong (Loretta Young) is a mother raising her young son Mickey (Jackie Kelk) by teaching him to lie, steal and cheat. She was pregnant, unmarried and on the streets at fifteen, and she means for him never to be taken advantage of. Lowell Sherman sets Cary Grant's Malcolm Trevor in her path, and Letty has to decide how much of that schooling she is willing to risk.
