Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Another Chance was originally released in Great Britain as Twilight Women. The film is a noirish exposé of London's "black market baby" racket. Freda Jackson plays the misleadingly kindly landlady of a boarding house for "wayward girls." In fact, Jackson is in charge of the whole sordid racket, selling illegitimate babies to desperate couples and bullying the unwed mothers into silence. The wicked woman is finally exposed by boarders Lois Maxwell and Rene Ray, who put their own lives and limbs on the line to do so.
