A cross between Garbo and Dietrich, French star Edwige Feuillère commands the leading role as an abandoned woman reduced to dancing in a tawdry nightclub to support her young son. When a handsome beau from her past resurfaces, she borrows money in order to put on an appearance of respectability and to recapture a bit of the lost happiness of her youth. Anticipating the fusion of melodrama and noir in Ophuls' Hollywood films, There’s No Tomorrow also marks the last of Ophuls’ five films shot by Eugen Schüfftan, whose camera captures a similar melding of expressionism and poetic realism that he achieved in his work on Carné’s Quai des brumes.
