A passionate melodrama in the style of the much-filmed Madame X, Warner Bros.' Confession (1937) reaches its emotional climax in a courtroom as a beautiful woman (Kay Francis) faces a charge of murder while attempting to protect her identity from a daughter who has never known her as a mother.
Although now seen as a fascinating American rendering of the German expressionistic style, Confession was viewed by audiences of its day as just another Kay Francis melodrama. One of the biggest names at Warners in the early 1930s, she had seen her star begin to wane as dramatic powerhouse Bette Davis came into her own at the studio. Production executive Hal B. Wallis issued a statement: "It is the producer's business to gauge his public; it is the star's business to trust the producer's judgment. Kay Francis is possibly the only star in the history of Warners who has realized this fact and who has been ready to meet us more than half-way." Francis herself said: "Even if it was me the public so kindly went to see, there was a limit to the number of times a certain type of story or motif could be repeated." Within two years she was gone from the Warners lot, and Davis had moved into her star bungalow.
