About

Wealthy American, Jervis Pendleton has a chance encounter at a French orphanage with a cheerful 18-year-old resident, and anonymously pays for her education at a New England college. She writes letters to her mysterious benefactor regularly, but he never writes back. Several years later, he visits her at school, while still concealing his identity, and—despite their large age difference—they soon fall in love.

Sun-drenched French orphanages and ivy-clad New England campuses set the stage for this rhythmic, sophisticated romance. Fred Astaire’s effortless footwork turns every chance encounter into a melodic dance of secret identities and longing letters.
