Lady by Choice is a 1934 American romantic drama film starring Carole Lombard as a fan dancer and May Robson as a homeless drunk who is asked to pose as the dancer's mother for a publicity stunt, with unexpected consequences. Promoted as a follow-up to Frank Capra's 1933 hit Lady for a Day (1933) resembles the earlier film only in its choice of leading lady, May Robson.

Synopsis

Alabam Lee (Carole Lombard) is given a suspended sentence by Judge Daly (Walter Connolly). To help improve her image, her publicist Front O'Malley (Raymond Walburn) comes up with the zany idea of "adopting" a mother. Her manager, Charlie Kendall (Arthur Hohl), thinks it is a great idea, so they head off to the nearest old ladies home with newspaper reporters and photographers in tow.

A man shoots dead a business leader and confesses to the killing, but refuses to say anything more than providing the name Joe Monday which is obviously an alias. His attorney joins forces with a woman claiming that she is sister and that he is really, a soldier reported missing during World War I. Still the accused refuses to offer further information. He is tried for murder with the case seemingly hanging on events from over twenty years earlier when the dead man and the accused had served in the same infantry company in France.
