Ex-Lady (1933)

흥미로운 사실

Ex-Lady is a 1933 American pre-Code comedy/drama film directed by Robert Florey. The screenplay by David Boehm is a remake of the Barbara Stanwyck film Illicit (1931), both crediting a story by Edith Fitzgerald and Robert Riskin. The film focuses on a pair of lovers, commercial illustrator Helen Bauer and advertising writer Don Peterson, who have been living together quite happily for some time. One night, after hiding in Helen's bedroom until their party guests have all left, Don announces that he is tired of sneaking around. He wants marriage—and possibly children—and Helen finally agrees, although she is afraid that it will wreck their relationship.

Production

The Warner Bros. film was a remake of the Barbara Stanwyck vehicle Illicit, released two years earlier.

Following the film's release, producer Darryl F. Zanuck resigned from Warners to form his own production company, Twentieth Century Pictures, which eventually merged with Fox to become 20th Century Fox.

The prologue to the 1962 film What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? includes a scene from Ex-Lady as an example of former child star Jane Hudson's failure to achieve screen success as an adult due to her lack of talent.
