Scarlet Street
Scarlet Street
Chris Cross, 25 years a cashier, has a gold watch and little else. That rainy night, he rescues delectable Kitty from her abusive boyfriend Johnny. Smitten, amateur painter Chris lets Kitty think he's a wealthy artist. At Johnny's urging, she lets Chris establish her in an apartment (with his shrewish wife's money). There, Chris paints masterpieces; but Johnny sells them under Kitty's name, with disastrous and ironic results.

Gonna start calling myself “Lazy Legs” in tribute to this
(it’s okay I’m disabled I’m allowed to claim it)
Why is everyone so mean about his paintings!? I think they’re good!!
I love that Johnny is so intuitive but still dumb as hell
