Dramatic School (1938) is a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer film directed by Robert B. Sinclair, and starring Luise Rainer, Paulette Goddard, Alan Marshal, Lana Turner, and Gale Sondergaard. The film's screenplay, written by Ernest Vajda and Mary C. McCall was based on a play by Hans Székely and Zoltan Egyed. In this film, acting student Louise (Luise Rainer) attends the Paris School of Drama while working at a dreary factory job. Her fellow students begin to suspect that her stories of a luxurious life are just fantasies that she weaves to relieve her humdrum life.
