Who's Your Lady Friend? is a 1937 British comedy film directed by Carol Reed and starring Frances Day, Vic Oliver and Betty Stockfeld. [1] The secretary of a beauty specialist accidentally brings the wrong person back from the railway station, triggering a series of confusions. It was based on a comedy play by Bela Jenbach and Rudolf Österreicher, which had previously been made into an Austrian film The Gentleman Without a Residence three years earlier. It was an independent production made at Ealing Studios. [2] The film's sets were designed by the art director Erwin Scharf.
It was an early role for Margaret Lockwood and the second of several collaborations with Carol Reed.
TV Guide called the film a "Cute farce and one of the many British programmers Reed directed before moving up to bigger features." [3]
