What Emma Is About
Emma Thatcher is a housekeeper who spent decades raising the motherless Smith children. When she decides to marry their father, those same children turn on her; they stop seeing the woman who brought them up and start seeing someone after an inheritance. The matter ends up in court. The film is about how years of a woman’s work count for nothing inside a family, and it rests entirely on Marie Dressler’s performance. What is actually argued in the courtroom is not the inheritance but who counts as family. Myrna Loy is also in Clarence Brown’s seventy two minute American film, completed in 1932.
