Tunis; about the mother of a female tennis prodigy, and she sees a chance to have success through her daughter that she never had in her own life, and a ruthless promoter encourages her to do so) starring Claire Trevor, Sally Forrest, Carleton G. Young, Robert Clarke, Kenneth Patterson, and Macella Cisney. Note that Hollywood star Ida Lupino had much success in the 1930s and 1940s, but she then turned to directing, and she made some excellent B-movies, including this one. Had she been given bigger budgets, she might have made some real masterpieces! Note that this movie has an artificial "happy ending" that was forced on the female, similar to the situation that existed with Orson Welles and The Magnificent Ambersons!

Important Added Info: Note that this poster has full-bleed borders on the left and right and has NOT been trimmed. This was done by RKO with their daybills from the middle to late 1940s. Advanced Australian collectors tell us that this is how all the daybills of this title were created. Please do not bid on this daybill thinking that it has been trimmed as it certainly was not.
