Overview
Madeleine Carroll (once the highest paid actress in the world) stars as a vampish actress who comes between a happily married couple, in this light-hearted melodrama from Miles Mander.
Carroll and director Mander are here following up their earlier success with The First Born (1928), which the multi-talented Mander starred in, directed and wrote - adapting how own play. Mander would unfortunately only direct three more features after Fascination, thereafter concentrating solely on acting.
