...Paulette Goddard has the sauciness her title role requires....This is a sneak-up-on-you sleeper...
USA Today
Less bitterly savage than Buñuel, but equally sharp in its satire.

Product Description:
Set at the turn of the century, DIARY OF A CHAMBERMAID stars Paulette Goddard as Celestine, a chambermaid who has left Paris to take a position at a mansion in the provinces. Intending to hook an affluent husband, she casts about for an appropriate choice. Her employer Captain Lanlaire (Reginald Owen), is under the thumb of his autocratic wife (Judith Anderson). Yet the eccentric Captain Mauger (Burgess Meredith) and the Lanlaire's attractive son Georges (Hurd Hatfield) remain interesting possibilities.
