 罗伯特．Z．伦纳德导演的这部影片以百老汇最大的歌舞团——齐格菲歌舞团的创办人佛罗伦斯．齐格菲的生平为题材，是三十年代好莱坞歌舞片黄金时代的重要代表作之一。当时获得了第九届奥斯卡最佳影片等三项大奖，女星路易丝．莱娜演出齐格菲的首任妻子，获最佳女主角奖。齐格菲年轻时是杂耍节目中表演的艺人。1893年到百老汇发展，建立了歌舞团的知名度，1907年创办了以美女盛装演出大型歌舞著称的齐格菲歌舞团，赢得歌舞大王的称号。齐格菲一角由威廉．鲍威尔担纲演出，男女主角都表演得很好。

　　影片讲述了一个从小被抛弃于森林，依照动物生存模式存活下来的女人。被一个男人掳掠回家并且受尽欺凌。这家人中，男主人极度大男子主义，仇视女人。小儿子因为受父亲教导也对女人极不尊敬。懦弱并逆来顺受的母亲，被父亲侮辱而怀孕的大女儿，以及不谙世事的小女儿。故事的最后，大女儿在极度绝望和恐惧的支配下放了野女人，野女人杀了她的父母和弟弟，带走了她的妹妹。 　　本片以不太恐怖的氛围，却深刻的暗喻了一个至今仍然存在的严重的社会现象，男人应该如何看待女人，女人应该如何正确扮演家庭中的角色。

　　The main character is Dr. Max Holst, a successful neurosurgeon. One day an intense little man named Steinmetz shows up, who has the real ability to create objects out of thin air, using only his mind. As no one believes him at first, he is held at a ward for mental patients, but manifests the key to his door and escapes. As he has a special interest in Dr. Holst, Steinmetz subsequently invites Holst to his large mansion, which is full of expensive paintings and sculptures, and proves to him that he can in fact materialise objects. Steinmetz’s abilities are evolving by leaps and bounds, and is progressing from being able to create objects only to being able to create living things. His ultimate ambition is to be able to create a human being. He tells Dr. Holst that if he will only perform a certain brain operation on him, Steinmetz will become able to attain his goal. He’s got all the necessary equipment set up in his basement. Dr. Holst, however, is too spooked by the whole thing to agree to this mad scheme, and refuses. Steinmetz then sets about manipulating Holst’s life, to pressure him into performing the operation. By then Steinmetz has become able to create a temporary human being, and in the hope that he can perhaps make his own creation perform the operation, he manifests a doppelganger of Dr. Holst. This double proceeds to take over Dr. Holst’s life, creating chaos for him professionally and personally. And then Dr. Holst starts fighting back. The ending has the dual virtue of being both unexpected and satisfying.
