Everybody's Woman (German: Jedermanns Frau) is a 1924 Austrian silent drama film directed by Alexander Korda and starring María Corda, May Hanbury, and Jeffrey Bernard. A Montmartre flower-seller is transformed into a society lady for a bet. It is also known as The Folly of Doubt.

Production

[edit]

After making a film The Unknown Tomorrow (1923) in Germany, Korda returned to Vienna with financial backing from Germany's largest studio UFA for a co-production with Sascha-Film. The film was shot during the winter 1923–1924.[1] The outline screenplay was probably written by Korda, based on a Pygmalion theme.[2] The sets were designed by the art director Julius von Borsody and Karl Hartl worked as assistant director. While in Vienna, Maria Corda also appeared in the hit film Moon of Israel (1924) by Michael Curtiz.
