. . . LADY OF THE NIGHT traces the career of a "working girl," who develops a crush on a young inventor after he decks her abusive pimp during a barroom brawl. Since LADY OF THE NIGHT originally was released by the despicable Millionaire Guys Mob film studio, whose main purpose was to brainwash Americans into thinking that there was NO possibility of "Upward Mobility" in the USA, hooker "Molly's" inventor\beau "Dave" is soon snatched away from her by an insipid Society airhead named "Flo." To drive home their moral about the hopelessness of Economic Predestination, these high-hat filmmakers have the same actress portray BOTH harlot Molly and the haughty Flo! This is the film studio's way of indoctrinating Americans that even when Rich People are identical to we normal folks (that is, one and the same) they'll always be Fate's Chosen Ones just because they were born Wealthy. (This lesson has been so thoroughly lapped up by the Working Stiffs that they'll now tolerate ANY billionaire bozo in the Oval Office, even if it's clear to the whole World that the Tweeting Jerk would be unfit to be elected Rat Catcher had he been born Poor.)
