The Merry Widow is a 1952 American film directed by Curtis Bernhardt and starring Lana Turner and Fernando Lamas. It is the third MGM screen adaptation of the 1905 operetta of the same title by Franz Lehár, following versions from 1925 and 1934.

Production

Lana Turner was announced as the female lead and Curtis Bernhardt as the director in June 1951. Turner's singing voice was dubbed by Trudy Erwin.

Una Merkel, who portrays Kitty Riley, had played Queen Dolores in the 1934 version.

Bernhardt used incandescent lighting in an effort to keep the action "bubbly and light", as traditional arc lighting was believed to impede the movement of the camera.
