That Certain Woman

In Lux Radio Theatre’s stirring adaptation of That Certain Woman, Carole Lombard and Basil Rathbone deliver deeply affecting performances in this tale of love, loss, and redemption. Lombard stars as Mary Donnell, a resilient woman trying to escape the shadows of her gangster husband’s past, while Rathbone portrays the compassionate lawyer who helps guide her path forward. Caught between societal judgment and personal sacrifice, Mary fights for dignity, love, and her child’s future. As Mary’s journey unfolds—from tragedy to quiet triumph—this emotionally charged drama asks what it truly means to love selflessly. Adapted from Edmund Goulding’s screenplay and previously filmed by Warner Brothers, this episode blends melodrama with heartfelt realism in a story about finding hope after heartbreak.
