It's 1919 Baltimore. Terence Ellerton 'Terry' O'Neill (William Powell) returns from the war to find that his reporter job taken. He crashes a wealthy wedding and kisses Kay Lorrison (Esther Williams). There are ups and downs in their relationship. He meets nightclub singer Dusty Millard (Angela Lansbury).
Swimming beauty Esther Williams does a bit of acting in this. It's not the most dramatic, but she is plenty sweet. There is a love triangle which isn't that dramatic. It's very magnanimous. None of this is that dramatic. William Powell glides through. There is a young Angela Lansbury who is hinting at some of her later greatness. This apparently is based on a real guy. It needs more fake drama.
