Our Blushing Brides is a 1930 American pre-Code society comedy/romantic melodrama directed and produced by Harry Beaumont and starring Joan Crawford, Robert Montgomery, Anita Page and Dorothy Sebastian.
The film follows Our Dancing Daughters (1928) and Our Modern Maidens (1929), which also starred Crawford, Page and Sebastian, though they portray different characters in each film. Although the two previous installments in the series were silent films, Our Blushing Brides is a sound film, a relatively new technology at the time.
Our Blushing Brides is Crawford’s 31st film (of 86 total), and her fourth sound film. In her first “shopgirl-Cinderella” role, Crawford plays the role of Gerry, a department store mannequin who falls in love with the wealthy son of her boss. The role was a departure from Crawford’s flapper-girl persona of the silent area as Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer began to develop a more sophisticated image for her.
