“Never released in this country, and with no reputation, this film has always been an unknown quantity. From its title and director combination, one expected a rather grim reprise of Maedchen In Uniform, but it is exactly the opposite. Apart from the odd moment of suicidal despair, this is the gayest, most light-hearted film Pabst ever made, something of a cross between Mal St. Clair's silent Are Parents People? and Deanna Durbin's Three Smart Girls. It's a serio-comedy about divorce, and even has a song or two. Micheline Presle, in her first film, is quite surprisingly assured.”
