The Woman's Angle is 1952 British drama film directed by Leslie Arliss and starring Edward Underdown, Cathy O'Donnell and Lois Maxwell.[2] It is based on the novel Three Cups of Coffee by Ruth Feiner.[3]
The film is the story of three love affairs of a man who belongs to celebrated family of musicians, culminating in divorce and his final discovery of happiness.
Arliss had been a fan of the novel since he read it in 1944.[4] Peter Reynods was under contract to Associated British at the time.[5]
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "As the title suggests, this is no more than the filming of a woman's magazine story, and has the traditional air of unreality. The ingredients – eccentric genius, misunderstandings, music, and a variety of settings – are put together without inspiration."[6]
In The New York Times, Bosley Crowther thought the film "a grim little sample of bad writing, bad acting and bad directing all around."[7]
