Johannes Meyer Writers: Alfred Möller (play), Hans Lorenz (play), 2 more credits » Stars: Lil Dagover, Albrecht Schoenhals, Sabine Peters
$9.99

Eine Industriellenwitwe wird zur Zielscheibe verleumderischer Klatschgeschichten. Klug und selbstbewußt setzt sie sich gegen die Vorurteile des bigotten Industrieclubs durch. Etwas zähflüssiges Drama mit ironischen Seitenhieben auf Spießer in Frack und Abendkleid. Eine Paraderolle für Lil Dagover als Inbegriff damenhafter Eleganz.

An industrialist’s widow becomes the target of slanderous gossip. Smart and self-confident, she prevails against the bigotry of the industrial club.  Slightly viscous drama with ironic jabs at philistines in tails and evening dresses.  A signature role for Lil Dagover as the epitome of ladylike elegance.

 

THERE IS A NEWSREEL ALONG WITH THE FILM, JUST AS GERMAN AUDIENCES MIGHT HAVE SEEN WHEN THE MOVIE WAS FIRST SHOWN (except this newsreel may not be contemporary to when the film was released).

DVD-R IS IN GERMAN WITH NO SUBTITLES (except for the Newsreel).
