It was also the fifth directorial effort of Leopold Lindtberg, an Austrian Jew who was forced to flee to Switzerland at the outbreak of WW II -- and in so doing became the tiny country's foremost filmmaker. The titular Marie-Louise (Joslane) is a young French lass who is evacuated to Switzerland when her country is overrun by the Nazis. Suffering a nervous breakdown, she is given comfort and shelter by a wealthy family. Unfortunately, living in the lap of luxury turns Marie-Louise into a spoiled brat, so much so that she refuses to return to her newly-liberated homeland. Eventually the girl comes to her senses, but it isn't easy. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
