Interesting little UFA film set in lodging house involves Aribert Mog's decision to move to Dresden for work, leaving girlfriend Brigitte Horney behind. Landlady Emilia Unda stirs it up, and there's also the involvement of a composer (whose piano playing opportunistically provides the score), a Russian, three sisters and a somewhat slimy grifter who saves the day... sort of.
Notable as an early Pressburger script. Shot by Eugene Schufftan.
Moves along - not bad. Relationship of the leads seems quite credible. Lots of good, human touches.
