The Curtain Falls is a 1934 drama film directed by Charles Lamont and starring Henrietta Crosman as an elderly actress on the brink of retirement. This film was made and released by the Poverty Row motion picture studio Chesterfield Pictures and was filmed at RKO Studios in Hollywood. Karl Brown wrote the story and screenplay.[1]
Crosman plays an actress called Sarah Crabtree, an obvious amalgamation of the names of Victorian era stage stars Sarah Bernhardt and Lotta Crabtree.
A rare film, it is now released on the Alpha DVD.[2]
