La donna che non si deve amare (Waterloo Bridge) è un melodramma bellico del 1931 diretto da James Whale. La pellicola è la prima trasposizione cinematografica dell'omonimo dramma teatrale di Robert E. Sherwood del 1930 e non deve essere confusa con il più famoso film della Metro Goldwyn Mayer Il ponte di Waterloo con Vivien Leigh e Robert Taylor Rispetto a quest'ultima pellicola, la prima è più coerente al soggetto teatrale e in esso la protagonista Myra conosce Roy quando è già diventata una prostituta da due anni insieme alla sua amica Kitty.
