Depicted is the DVD cover art for Heat Lightning starring Aline MacMahon, Ann Dvorak, and Preston Foster. It is based on the play of the same name by Leon Abrams & George Abbott. The cover features Olga (Aline MacMahon) standing in front of a blue background holding a smoking gun. To her left is the caption, "I JUST KILLED A RAT!" Centered below that is the movie title "Heat Lightning" in a red script typeface set against a white background. The movie was released in March of 1934, which was a few months prior to the Hays Code going into effect.

Today's movie pick is the 1934, pre-Code #film Heat Lightning, starring #AlineMacMahon & #AnnDvorak. Being a pre-code era flick, it addresses topics that might otherwise have been deemed taboo under the Hays Code, including gender roles & the marginalization of minorities by affluent, white society.
