Merlin and Son. She inadvertently keeps her job when said son (Niven) believes Rogers to be the poor mother of a foundling child. After much confusion and merriment, including a sequence in which Niven attempts to return a broken toy duck incognito and is forcefully accosted for shoplifting by the floorwalker, romance naturally wins out over differences of class or social acceptability.</div><div><br></div><div><i>Bachelor Mother</i> was remade from 1935 Hungarian film <i>Little Mother</i>, with a screenplay by Norman Krasna adapting an Oscar-nominated story by Felix Jackson.</div>ComedyPT1H23MU2026-12-20USenGinger Rogers
