Desirable is a 1934 American drama film directed by Archie Mayo and starring Jean Muir and George Brent. It was released by Warner Bros. Pictures. The film follows the story of Lois, the 19-year-old daughter of a famous actress, who has been hidden away at boarding school to protect her mother's image. A scarlet-fever quarantine sends her home to New York City, full of innocent enthusiasm, only to be betrayed by her mother, by the arrogant egotists of her mother's theatrical world and by the haughty social snobs in the upper-crust family whose son her mother persuades her to marry. Mac, a friend of her mother's, initially plays an avuncular role. By the end of the film, Lois and Mac realize that they are in love.
