It was an attempt by its makers to imitate the success of the Gainsborough melodramas. Cast
ProductionThe film was produced by Maurice Ostrer who moved into independent production after leaving Gainsborough Pictures. He set up his own company, Premier Productions, and made the film in association with R.J. Minney and Leslie Arliss who had all collaborated on The Wicked Lady. It was shot at MGM's British studios.[3] ReceptionThe movie was not a financial success and led to Maurice Ostrer quitting the film business for good. The careers of Leslie Arliss and Beryl Baxter never recovered either.[4][1][5] The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote that "the film is over-exaggerated in every detail and will appeal only to the very unsophisticated."[6] References1. ^1 Maurice Ostrer at Britmovie 2. ^[https://www.academia.edu/3437867/Gainsboroughs_producers Robert Murphy, Gainsborough's Producers] 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article228974916 |title=BRITISH FILMS |newspaper=The Sun |issue=2317 |location=Sydney|date=7 September 1947 |accessdate=13 September 2017 |page=19 |via=National Library of Australia}} 4. ^{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=xtGIAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA121&lpg=PA121&dq=%22idol+of+paris%22+ostrer&source=bl&ots=MUmVXea_FA&sig=NkFrfWwRhXrOP0dxE-QUK3BrtBU&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjil7LttaDWAhUE8mMKHYWrDuoQ6AEITjAL#v=onepage&q=%22idol%20of%20paris%22%20ostrer&f=false|pages=120–121 |title= Realism and Tinsel: Cinema and Society in Britain 1939-48 |first= Robert |last=Murphy |publisher= Routledge |date=2003 }} 5. ^Maurice Ostrer at BFI Screenonline 6. ^Idol of ParisMonthly Film Bulletin; London15.169 (Jan 1, 1948): 30.
