Theatrical Release Information | See Details About All Versions
Originally released as Madame Wunscht Keine Kinder, this Alexander Korda production served as a showcase for the producer-director's actress wife, Maria Corda. The star is cast as a carefree Parisian belle who falls in love with a somewhat stuffy bachelor. Though the heroine wants to keep up her hectic social life, her new husband prefers domesticity. Only when "Madame" discovers that she might have a rival does she agree to concentrate on starting a family. The final scene, as expected, takes place in a maternity ward, with a radiant close-up of the beautiful new "mommy." ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
