Lucy Cunningham is a starry-eyed American studying abroad in Paris. She soon gets to know the City of Light from the unanticipated vantage point of an accused murderer!
Lucy is smitten right away by Antoine Verdier, who is conveniently part of the family with whom she is residing in Paris. But after witnessing the ugly scene of a crime of passion, Lucy suddenly realizes that she is being framed for the murder.
With a corrupt judge, a dirty police lieutenant, and a spineless representative of the American embassy, the quick-thinking Lucy defies the odds in escaping the authorities to investigate the crime on her own. She finds an ally in Antoine and discovers that he is a talented artist with a studio in Montmartre.
There was some terrific film footage of Paris, as well as a talented group of bilingual actors creating the ambience of the great city. The pacing of the film was brisk, and the love theme was reinforced with a subplot related to the true parentage of Antoine. There was a nice touch in the denouement that promised plenty of action in the future awaiting the two love birds.
