Madame X

The Newest and Greatest All-Talking Motion Picture

Thrown out by her cold, unforgiving husband, the Attorney General of France, a young wife and mother is forbidden from ever seeing her three-year-old son again despite her efforts to make amends. She spends years seeking refuge overseas and in absinthe. In the end, her son, a promising young lawyer, unknowingly defends her in court. Ruth Chatterton gives a marvelous performance in this early talkie as Madame X.
