''Women of Twilight'' is a 1951 play by Sylvia Rayman that became a 1952 film directed by Gordon Parry. The latter starred Freda Jackson, Rene Ray and Lois Maxwell, with a screenplay by Anatole de Grunwald.〔http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/title/58547〕 It was the first British film to receive the recently introduced X certificate. ==Plot== "The scene throughout is a semi-basement living room in a house near London, a grim and sordid place inhabited for sleeping and eating by a motley group of unmarried young women with babies - already born or about to be hustled into an unfriendly world. The 'proprietress' - a sadistic, unscrupulous woman called Helen Allistair - though a qualified nurse, exploits these unfortunate outcasts from society until one of them - the despairing girl Vivianne, whose gangster lover is hanged and who has nothing to lose - discovers this ghoulish creature's baby-farming activities. Vivianne, whose baby is shortly to be born, faces Mrs Allistair with her accusation, is brutally assaulted and almost loses her life. In the end justice is done, and Mrs Allistair gets her deserts."〔Frances Stephens, ''Theatre World Annual (London)'', Rockliff Publishing Corporation, 1952〕
