A quickie retread of 'Stella Dallas' and 'Waterloo Bridge', this early production from Twickenham Studios is a studio-bound but intense depiction of what was doubtless a common consequence of both world wars.
Sparked by a commanding leading performance by Mary Newcomb, who as usual gives birth to a foundling after just the one night of passion (which she is still stretched out in bed plainly still savouring when the curtain rises) before her officer lover departs for the front leaving her holding the baby. Like most quota quickies it looks like a filmed play, but apparently isn't.
