Despite it's early-talkie limitations, this film is really very good. It features Oscar nominee Ruth Chatterton and a pre-stardom Fredric March.
The film centers around Sarah Storm (Chatterton), a singer with a lowlife husband/boyfriend. When she tries to throw him out, he struggles with her, and she runs out. Just afterward, the neighbor's maid brings over their infant son. The lowlife husband gives the baby to a rich family.
Sarah finds him in a hospital and gets the family name out of him before being taken away. She goes to the family's lawyer, who happens to be the brother also. She fights for a chance to see the boy. While trying to gain access to the boy, a romance blossoms between her and the lawyer (March).
So seek it out if your interested, in my opinion, you won't be disappointed.
