In German with English subtitles. Also known as Die Sünderin.
The Sinner was heralded by a storm of publicity regarding its director
Willi Forst and its star Hildergarde Neff. The film was Forst's first effort since 1942, and as such it was highly anticipated. The film was also Neff's last German production before her "new" career in Hollywood. The film casts its star as a young girl who is no better than she ought to be, but whose good intentions outweigh her bad impulses. Believing she has finally found true love in the form of an artist (Gustav Frolich), the girl is in for a major disappointment when her lover begins behaving erratically due to a brain tumor. The spectacularly tragic ending to this tale, coupled with a handful of highly censurable love scenes, seriously impaired any chances for
The Sinner to achieve box-office success in the U.S.
