Curiosità

When the Bough Breaks is a 1947 film directed by Lawrence Huntington and starring Patricia Roc and Rosamund John. It was written by Peter Rogers, Muriel Box and Sydney Box, based on an original story by Moie Charles and Herbert Victor. The film is a study of adoption and the competing ties of one child's birth and foster family.

Production

The film was the second in four films produced by Betty Box for Gainsborough with a total budget of £600,000. It was less glamorous than the typical Gainsborough melodrama, with no outfit worn by Patricia Roc costing more than £5. Roc played a working class role. The house featured in the film was based on the real life house of Sydney Box.
