Synopsis

Mary Archer weds Jim Hutton with all the ritual of a church wedding, the bride believing that each should be allowed perfect freedom in personal contacts. Among the wedding guests is the young composer Richard Parrish, hardly disguising his admiration for the bride, and Noel Farley, whose passion is exceeded only by the pain of losing Jim to another woman. When a child is born to them, Mary declines to accompany Jim on a European business trip, and Noel, who owns a villa at Antibes, lures him into a rendezvous. Meanwhile, Mary sees much of Richard, her composer friend; later, learning of the rendezvous, she considers a Paris divorce so as to marry Richard, but when Jim unexpectedly returns, their mutual love is confirmed.
