King of Burlesque

Jan 03, 1936
Warner Baxter plays the ambitious producer of a burlesque show who rises to the big time on Broadway. Alice Faye is the loyal burleycue singer who helps make Baxter a success. His head turned by sudden fame, Baxter falls under the spell of a society woman (Mona Barrie) who has theatrical aspirations of her own. She marries Baxter, then convinces him to produce a string of "artistic" plays rather than his extravagant musical revues. The plays are flops, and the woman haughtily divorces Baxter. Faithful Alice Faye, who'd gone to London when her ex-beau was married, returns to the penniless Baxter. She and her burlesque buddies team up to pull Baxter out of his rut and put him on top again.

En ce début du XIXe siècle, la taverne de la Jamaïque a une très mauvaise réputation. Ses clients ont la fâcheuse habitude de cacher la lumière du phare par temps de tempête et, ainsi, de faire échouer les navires sur les récifs, particulièrement nombreux à cet endroit de la côte de Cornouailles. Sir Humphrey, le juge de paix local, dirige le groupe et l'informe du passage des navires. N'ayant plus de famille en Irlande, Mary Yellard rejoint sa tante Patience, mariée à Joss, l'aubergiste de la taverne de la Jamaïque. Elle découvre la bande de naufrageurs qui occupe les lieux. Jem Trehearne, un nouveau membre, doit être pendu après une dispute. Mary parvient à le délivrer et tous deux s'échappent de cet endroit sinistre. Où iront-ils se réfugier ?
