George Brent is flying his parents and sister when the plane crashed. He survives. Some time later, he's at a party thrown by his friend Warren William. William's fiancee, Kay Francis and he instantly connect.
I enjoyed this movie immensely, but in the end it's one of those movies that make no sense. Why is William so fond of Brent that he gives up his fiancee and helps them out? Is Miss Francis' willingness to leave Brent because she can do him no good, but willing to run back at all understandable? Perhaps if we remembe this is a Frank Borzage movie, and there something mystical about love for and between broken people. It still seems as if there is a lot left out that should be there.
Still, there are some marvelous moments, like Miss Francis' reaction when Brent says "Get your hat" that make this worth watching.
