A House Divided

This film features a New England fisherman whose second wife shows a preference for his son, creating a tension-filled family scenario. It runs for 70 minutes and is a notable entry in the pre-code era of cinema, which often tackled more adult themes before the enforcement of strict censorship.

Starring Walter Huston, Douglass Montgomery, and Helen Chandler, A House Divided presents a narrative that intertwines romance and familial conflict. The film's exploration of a father's relationship with his son and the woman they both desire adds depth to its dramatic themes. As a product of Universal Pictures, it reflects the storytelling style and character-driven plots of early 1930s cinema.
