Lord Camber's Ladies is the only movie produced by Alfred Hitchcock which he did not also direct.
Lord Camber (Nigel Bruce) is a notorious womanizer. A heart
condition necessitates Lady Camber (Gertrude Lawrence) have a full-time
nurse under the direction of Dr. Harley Napier (Gerald du Maurier).
Her spiteful maid maliciously tells Lady Camber that her nurse (Benita Hume)
is Lord Camber's latest lover. Through a situation largely her doing, Lady
Camber faints, goes into a coma, and in a short time dies. What follows is
suspicion of murder storylines.
Some critics and film historians have said that Hitchcock was never fond of the story so simply produced the project and left the directing to his friend Benn W. Levy.
Others
in the cast include Clare Greet, A. Bromley Davenport, Betty
Norton, Harold Meade, Hugh E. Wright, Hal Gordon and
Molly Lamont. The screenplay was written by Edwin Greenwood
and Benn W. Levy based on the play "The Case of Lady Camber" by Horace
A. Vachell, 1915.
