But when his grandfather dies and leaves him a fortune, he forgets his vow and falls for a wealthy, beautiful snob. Can Kipps really be such a cad? Of course not. In the end, he loses his loot and marries his lower-class true love, like the decent English workingman that everybody knew he always...
