The force of Forbes before going to Hollywood... Caron really wants to go adult in spite of having a false "27 years old" here. Intimate, good characters (dear old Mavis, soft jealous Brock Peters)...

Description: Jane, a young French woman, pregnant and unmarried, takes a room in a seedy London boarding house, which is inhabited by an assortment of misfits.

"Forlorn Frenchwoman Jane is a pregnant twenty-seven year old, unwed and alone who takes a room in a boarding house in London bustling with funny, mercurial people. Next door to her is a black jazz musician, downstairs is a handsome writer (who hasn't sold anything in months); down from him is a lesbian shut-in, the man-hungry landlady, and two prostitutes. This is an excellent kitchen sink drama and character study, and features a career best performance from Leslie Caron who was nominated for "
