Envy (1930) ** (out of 4) A rather forgettable pre-code short has a bored couple growing tired of one another. Both member seems to think they'd have a better time with the friends coming over so they decide to switch and see if it's true or not. The theme of switching spouses is something we didn't see too much of during the early days of cinema but that's the subject here and the history behind that is a lot more entertaining than the actual film. The movie suffers from poor sound quality and rather awful acting, which was something stalking the movies during this early sound era. All four overact something horrid as they are constantly moving their arms and acting out everything they say. This might have been important in the silent era but it just doesn't work in a sound movie. The term "making love" is said quite a few times and the adult subject makes this unique but the end result isn't nearly as good as it should have been. For film buffs only.
