What happens

Today is a 1930 American pre-Code drama film directed by William Nigh and starring Conrad Nagel, Catherine Dale Owen, and Sarah Padden. It was co-written by Seton I. Miller and was based on a 1913 play by George Howells Broadhurst, which had previously been made into a silent film of the same title. The film's sets were designed by the art director Albert S. D'Agostino. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
