My Mother-in-law (1962)

1962 · 120 min · Drama

The film's story revolves around the tragic love affair between Kassim Selamat, a poor musician, and Sabariah, the only daughter of a wealthy woman. The movie is notable in that the opening act starts out as a light-hearted romantic comedy, but at the 30 minute mark turns into a dramatic tragedy. Like a number of P. Ramlee's works, the film criticizes the unofficial caste system that separates the wealthy from the poor.

Directed by P. Ramlee. Starring P. Ramlee, Sarimah Ahmad, Mak Dara, Ahmad Mahmud and Ahmad Nisfu.
