I have a soft spot for this film. Reg Denny was a dream in A Lady’s Morals. He was forward at first, but I love him playing a romantic drama leading role. Reg in romantic films really make me swoon because he was a heart-melter. I like Grace Moore a lot. She did a good job for her film debut and I appreciate her vocal talent.

Grace Moore sings seven songs during the film's amazingly brief (75-minute) running time, two of them operatic classics. The anemic box-office showing of A Lady's Morals and her follow-up vehicles briefly squelched Grace Moore's hopes for film stardom, but a few years later she enjoyed enormous success in a series of Columbia musicals.
A Lady's Morals - A Lady's Morals Infamous as the film that sank Grace Moore's film career as it was starting, this musical biography has been unjustly maligned over the years. True, the fictional romance between famed Swedish soprano Jennie Lind (Moore) and a pianist (Reginald Denny) who goes blind was hokey even in 1930.
