Pied-A-Terror

 

She's installed in an elegant pad
But this moll's forced to dwell with a cad
The décor might be festive
But it's whorish, suggestive 
And her caller is eldritch and mad.

David Cairns

Fredric March as Mr. Hyde and Miriam Hopkins as music hall singer (and we know what that meant Pre-Code) Ivy Pearson in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Rouben Mamoulian; 1931).
