Synopsis

A tempermental French singer (Tala Birell) walks just before her opening at a night club in New Orleans. A local choir singer (Simone Simon) substitutes, fooling both the audience and two brothers (Don Ameche, Robert Young), who think she's philandering with their father (William Collier Sr.).
