Reckless Decision (1933)

Trivia

Reckless Decision

Edit
Once again, the AFI catalog has make a mess of a simple thing (just like it did on "The Mikado" and "Renfrew of the Royal Mounted") (a typo that mixed the cast of two different films together); in this instance, the first eight credited players in Marriage on Approval (1933), which had a working title of Suspicious Wives, become the cast of Reckless Decision (1933), which was a changed-title re-release of Tell Your Children (1922) with additional added contemporary footage, NOT actually a re-edited re-release of Marriage on Approval a changed-title re-release of a 1922 silent exploitation film with added footage lifted from Marriage on Approval. Simple isn't it.
Per page 2102 of the American Film Institute Catalog: Feature Films 1931-40 (which lists this picture as "Suspicious Mothers"), all of the flashback scenes in Reckless Decision were taken from an earlier produced film, which has since been identified as Tell Your Children (1922).
This is a re-edited re-release of Marriage on Approval (1933) with three new, brief framing sequences added.
Was shown in the 1950s on television on stations like WOR.
