The Laughing Lady is a 1929 sound film melodrama directed by Victor Schertzinger, starring Ruth Chatterton and produced and released by Paramount Famous Lasky Corporation.[2] It is based on a 1922 British play, The Laughing Lady, by Alfred Sutro. The play was brought to New York in 1923 and put on Broadway starring Ethel Barrymore.

A 1924 Paramount silent film retitled A Society Scandal starred Gloria Swanson. It is now lost.

In 1930 a sound version, A Kacago Asszony, was produced by Paramount at its studio in Joinville, France, in Hungarian with a Hungarian director and cast.[3][circular reference] It was released in the US by Paramount in 1931.

Jeanne Eagels was to star in the film but died before production began.
