Sunny O'Sullivan, a circus performer, and Larry Warren, an automotive engineer in a wealthy auto business family, are thrust together during the Mardi Gras celebration in New Orleans. Groups of people blocking both entrances to the courtyard, in which they are trapped, refuse to allow them to escape until they kiss. Eventually the pair are resigned to carrying out the crowd's demand and are surprised by how pleasant it is. The human barriers dissolve and the two go their separate ways into the rowdy crowd. Larry is flabbergasted to see Sunny staring in the circus act of the nightclub his family group are later attending. He manages to catch Sunny's eye, then follows it up with a bouquet of 50 roses and an invitation to dinner. The original plans do not work out, but the two manage to slip away and have a fabulous 10-course dinner on the street from food vendors. They end up on a moonlight riverboat cruise that leads to a proposal from Larry. His family is not pleased to learn that he has committed to marry a girl of such low social status. Her fellow performers are sad to see he go because she has been their star performer. Larry picks her up to take her to the family mansion for the pre-wedding celebrations.

Larry is outraged and throws a fit. Sunny leaves disappointed that he cannot accept her friends. She returns to performing. Larry has second thoughts and comes after her.

Three Comrades

1 hr 38 mins

1920. Erich Lohkamp, Gottfried Lenz, and Otto Koster are longtime friends who fought together as fighter pilots for the German Army in the recently concluded Great War. Each came out of the war with a different mission: Erich to enjoy all that life has to offer; Gottfried for a more peaceful, humanistic society, no matter for who i.e. what side supported in the war; and Otto to look after his two dearest friends. Using their engineering skills, they have opened a garage and operate a three driver (them) taxi service, with Otto having built his dream automobile which he has named Baby, which was also the name of his beloved fighter plane in the war. It is through Baby that the trio meets wealthy fascist Herr Breuer, who wants to buy Baby, and Breuer's platonic companion, socialite Patricia Hollmann. Erich in particular is attracted to Patricia, the two who embark on a relationship. While outsiders can see that they are in love, each resists the notion of marrying, Erich due to the differences in their social standing, and Patricia for a secret that she is keeping that Otto learns: that she is suffering from an advanced case of tuberculosis. What happens in their relationship is not only affected by these issues, but by societal events in general, where violence abounds in Germany a result of the war, that violence about which Gottfried most specifically laments.
