    Poor Jenny review

    A tragic melodrama charting the downfall of a working class girl who falls for a callous playboy. It's downbeat but entertaining, and gives the superb Asta Nielsen a chance to show her star quality. One of a number of films she made with director Urban Gad, who would become her husband two months after this film was released.

    Asta the Waif

    Ms Nielsen wears an absolutely enormous hat and a variety of provocative outfits including hot pants which would have seemed revealing even their seventies heyday. But as usual she plunges downwards, signified by the fact she starts smoking.
