Joan Greenwood pictures

When Joan Greenwood visited the French tapestry exhibition at the Victoria & Albert Museum, she was overwhelmed by the beauty of the famous ‘Lady and the Unicorn’ tapestry. She is especially interested in unicorns as her present film is John Corfield’s The White Unicorn.

Joan Greenwood, one of the stars of The White Unicorn, amuses herself with an old barrel organ while on location in Hammersmith for shots of a dockland city. Joan plays the role of Lottie, a slum girl who never has a real chance in life

Lottie Smith (Joan Greenwood), who has been remanded on a charge of attempting to murder her child and commit suicide herself, asks the warden of the remand home, Lucy Glover (Margaret Lockwood) what she knows about unhappiness. ‘Quite a lot,’ retorts Lucy, who is separated through divorce from her own child

Lucy (Margaret Lockwood) decides to fight Lottie’s (Joan Greenwood) case. When she is brought up at the assizes, the judge is Lucy’s ex-husband, Philip Templar. Lucy’s eloquent plea in which she appeals for a chance for Lottie Smith, the little slum girl who never had an opportunity, softens Philip. In cross examination he seems to be questioning Lucy rather than Lottie. Lottie is bound over and allowed custody of her child. Her relief is obvious when she flings her arms around Lucy, thanking her for putting her on the road to happiness

Lucy Glover (Margaret Lockwood) is warden of a remand home for girls. A new arrival, Lottie Smith (Joan Greenwood, seated left), has appointed herself ring leader of the girls and is rapping on the table with a spoon. Lottie, product of the slums, has been remanded on a charge of attempting to murder her child and commit suicide herself. Lucy wins her confidence and she tells the story of her life: she had a drunken father, a sluttish mother and five young brothers and sisters – all living in one room

Lottie Smith (Joan Greenwood) walks slowly out of the doctor’s surgery after learning that she is about to become a mother

The counsel asks Lottie Smith (Joan Greenwood) whether she pleads ‘guilty’ or ‘not guilty’ to the attempted murder of her baby. (1)

Paul (Paul Dupuis) invites Lottie Smith (Joan Greenwood) to tea at his flat, after which he proceeds to make love to her. At first she is frightened, but he makes her feel at home and she succumbs

Lottie (Joan Greenwood) tells Paul (Paul Dupuis) that she is going to have a baby. Paul pleads with her to be sensible; he says she is trying the old game to make him marry her

Lottie Smith (Joan Greenwood) is terrified when her father comes home drunk. She lives with her mother, father and four other children in one dirty, squalid room. There is no privacy, nowhere to be alone

Lottie Smith (Joan Greenwood) wheels the ramshackle pram containing her younger brothers and sisters down the streets of a dock city in which she ‘lives’ in sordid surroundings. Lottie tells this episode in her life to the warden of the remand home to which she is later sent on a charge of trying to murder her child and commit suicide herself.
