Criterion Channel's current “Rebels at the Typewriter: Women Screenwriters of the 1930s” collection

What Price Hollywood? is decent and is rightly known as a A Star Is Born precursor.

But the one that is head and shoulders above the rest is Finishing School. It turns “condemned by the Legion of Decency” into a recommendation.
