...love story of a blonde flower-seller (Annabella) and a taxi-driver (Georges Rigaud). Across the street in the shadow of Montmartre they fall in love on July 13th. They talk in the street, that night go to the street ball after she has lost her job in a cabaret for slapping an old drunkard (Paul Olivier). That night the taxi-driver's wanton, black-haired ex-mistress (Pola Illery) moves in on him and he moves out.

...punish such treachery to Nazi "pure race" ideals, they cut off her blonde plaits, shaved her head, tied a placard around her neck reading "I have offered myself to a Jew" and pinned the plaits to the placard. Until after midnight the girl was dragged from cabaret to cabaret, forced to stand on the stage of each while she was made the butt of vile abuse.

Neither the district attorney's office, local or state police, nor the dozen Department of Justice agents sent to Albany specially by Attorney General Cummings at the request...
...beneficent effect of penal institutions on their adolescent inmates. Mary (Loretta Young), like Constance Bennett in Bed of Roses and Jean Harlow in Hold Your Man, is an alumna of the reformatory but she has a law-abiding nature. When aiding her accomplice Leo (Ricardo Cortez) to rob a cabaret, she saved a handsome young patrician named Tom Mannering Jr. (Franchot Tone) from being murdered. He rewards her with a job in his law office. She is already affianced to her employer when sent to a jail for a crime that she committed long before. Cinema stories by Anita Loos...
