1934 · Movie · NR · 90 min · ★ 6.7
Norma Shearer headlines this domestic drama as a chorus girl who weds a British nobleman before trying to start anew with a young man who loves her. Footloose and fancy-free American heiress Mary has been married to Lord Rexford (Herbert Marshall) for five years when, urged on by her fun-loving aunt, she vacations on the Riviera, where she reunites with her ex-boyfriend Tommie (Robert Montgomery). A drunken mistake leads to scandal and possible divorce, but Mary strives to make everything right again. Walter Brennan plays a small comedic role.
