Girls Will Be Boys is a 1934 British comedy film by French director Marcel Varnel and starring Dolly Haas, Cyril Maude and Esmond Knight. [1] It is based on The Last Lord, a play by Kurt Siodmak. [2] The film was shot at Elstree Studios with sets designed by the art director Cedric Dawe. Haas made this, her first English-language film, following a Nazi-led riot at the premiere of her previous film Das häßliche Mädchen . The riots protested the male lead, Max Hansen, who was supposedly "too Jewish." In 1936, Haas fled Germany altogether. [3]
