A strait-laced amateur sociologist, Phillips Christy, from a wealthy family subscribes to the theory that people are shaped by their environment. When he falls in love with Diane, a showgirl from the follies, he sees a chance to prove his theory to be correct—he will marry her and mold her to be “cultivated” and “sophisticated”. However, fate intervenes to put a crimp in his plans. |
