Synopsis

Kathleen, une jeune Irlandaise, arrive à New York pour se marier avec Terry, un plombier. Lors d'une soirée chez sa tante Nora, elle rencontre Dan Moriarity, un politicien qu'elle considère comme un gentleman. Il l'invite chez lui à Long Island, ce qui provoque la jalousie de Terry. Moriarity propose à Kathleen le mariage et informe Terry de ce fait. Toutefois, lors du mariage, un homme accuse les hommes de Moriarity de meurtre. Moriarity lui tire dans le dos devant Kathleen et dit à majordome de disposer du corps. Terrifiée, prenant juste le temps de rendre son alliance, Kathleen se rue hors de la pièce et se console dans les bras de Terry.

The film takes a behind-the-scenes look at the romantic lives of three chorus girls and the way their preferences in men affect their lives. Sally is brassy, self-assured chorine in search of a sugar daddy. Irene is a romantic girl easily seduced by con men. Whereas Mary is the true heroine of the story, leaving the sordidness behind to settle down

Au cours d’une fin de semaine passée dans son château du Perche, le richissime parvenu Isidore Lechat, qui dispose d'un grand quotidien indispensable à ses affaires, en traite deux qui sont susceptibles de renforcer encore sa puissance financière et sa surface sociale : d’un côté, il reçoit, de deux ingénieurs électriciens, Gruggh et Phinck, qui ont besoin d’un financeur, des propositions d’exploitation d’une chute d’eau riche de potentialités de profits, et il parvient à leur imposer sa loi ; de l’autre, il envisage de marier sa fille Germaine au fils d’un noble décavé, le marquis de Porcellet, son voisin, qu'il tient à sa merci, mais ce projet se heurte à la résistance de la jeune femme. Révoltée, intellectuellement et sexuellement émancipée, Germaine juge son père, souffre de la misère engendrée par ses vols, et choisit la liberté : préférant la misère à un luxe homicide, elle part avec son amant, le chimiste Lucien Garraud, employé de son père, et elle se vante de l'avoir choisi, ce qui a profondément choqué les critiques de l’époque : à leurs yeux, elle n’était qu’une fille dénaturée !

The film begins with a group of news reporters watching, and gossiping, at an elaborate wedding reception for Yoshiko Iwabuchi (Kyoko Kagawa), the daughter of Vice President Iwabuchi (Masayuki Mori, the villain character) of the Unexploited Land Development Corporation, a construction company, and Koichi Nishi, the president's secretary (a bespectacled Toshiro Mifune). The police interrupt the wedding when corporate assistant officer Wada, who is the wedding reception's master of ceremony, is arrested on charges of bribery in a kickback scheme. The reporters comment this incident is similar to an earlier scandal involving Iwabuchi, administrative officer Moriyama, and contract officer Shirai. That earlier case was hushed up after the apparent suicide of Assistant Chief Furuya, by jumping off the corporate office building, creating a dead end in the investigation before any of the company's higher-ups could be implicated.
