Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Though John Wayne is immediately associated with Westerns and war movies, he was, surprisingly, in a 90-year-old sex drama that was so shocking at the time that it completely rewrote Hollywood's censorship laws.

A young John Wayne played Jimmy McCoy, a low-level manager at the bank. He becomes Lily's lover for a brief time, but after he gets her a job at the bank, she leaves him for someone higher up the bank's food chain. In one humorous exchange, an oblivious Jimmy complains that he no longer sees Lily, unaware that her nights are now being taken up with another man.
