In the unfairly neglected Safe in Hell (1931), Wellman works his magic with Dorothy Mackaill, an actress who is little-remembered today but turned in a powerful performance in this grim pre-Code drama. Mackaill plays Gilda, a character who - in the best Wellman tradition - chooses death over dishonor.
