Film Description

Hitchcock's debut is an accomplished piece of work which already features a number of his trademark themes, right from the sly voyeurism of a blonde dancing girl in the very opening scene.

Patsy Brand works as a chorus girl. She helps down on her luck Jill Cheyne to find a job and she subsequently meets Hugh Fielding who she becomes engaged to. Meanwhile, Patsy has married Levett, but he and Hugh have to leave for the English colonies in the tropics. With her husband away Jill starts to live the high life, but Patsy remains loyal to Levett. When she hears that he is ill she makes the journey to the tropics, only to find him living with a native and with a severe alcohol problem.
