Charles Boyer stars as a fervent anarchist who vows to kill anyone who represents "the establishment." As a result, he ends up shooting idolized music-hall singer Gaby Morlay in full view of her audience. After this unpromising start, Boyer and Morlay get to know each other, eventually falling in love. At his attempted-murder trial, Morlay offers to testify on Boyer's behalf -- but he refuses, determined to become a martyr to his cause. Things work out in a most unexpected fashion in this offbeat romance, released in the U.S. in 1935 to capitalize on Boyer's burgeoning American popularity. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
