Description
 
Ruth Chatterton plays a free-thinking eccentric Russian who marries a British aristocrat, and bears him a daughter. His family is displeased and show it. Ruth is indiscreet with another brit, played by Ivor Novello, and is of course run out of England.

She ends up wealthy in Paris. The years fly by and the daughter now grown ends up in Paris, desperately in need of guidance.

What makes this film is the really wonderful performance by Ruth Chatterton. She makes us believe this film and plays the character of Anna almost like she is real. She is full of emotion, she makes mistakes and accepts them and accepts the lot in life she is given.

It is easy to see why a young Bette Davis was in awe of her. This is a rarely seen film but one worth watching for Miss Chatterton.
