What happens

Men in Her Life is a 1931 American pre-Code drama film directed by William Beaudine and starring Lois Moran, Charles Bickford and Victor Varconi. It was based on a 1930 novel by Warner Fabian (Samuel Hopkins Adams). It was made during a brief spell Beaudine had working at Columbia Pictures. Critics considered the film one of the studio's better B releases. Part of the film was set in the Café de la Paix in Paris which was reconstructed authentically at the Columbia studios. Columbia also made a Spanish-language version of this film, entitled Hombres en mi vida. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
