Runaway Queen
The story answers the question: can romance defy caste? It is a tale of a queen and a commoner. Beautiful Anna Neagle is recalled from a New York store to ascend to the throne of a European kingdom. In spite of all her efforts for peace, a revolutionary party led by the commoner, Fernand Gravey, overthrows her and sets up a republic as she flees to Switzerland. Gravey, now president, leaves for a rest and meets the queen in the Swiss alps. In this romantic surrounding, the two succumb to each other's charms, but keep their respective identities to themselves. Miss Neagle is then recalled by her people and Gravey seized as a traitor. The action then moves quickly to the climax that finds the lovers together again and ready to head the government, Miss Neagle when it desires a queen and her husband when it desires a president.
