"And life here is like a resurrection."
Erique Claudin (Claude Rains) is a violinist with the Paris Opera, who is infatuated with promising young singer Christine Dubois (Susanna Foster). Unknown to her he spends his every last penny on lessons for her, but she doesn't know he even exists. She only has eyes for male lead Anatole (Nelson Eddie) and police inspector Raoul (Edgar Barrier). Then one day Claudin manages to get sacked, commit murder and get scalded with acid...From this point on he decides to dedicate himself to creating Christine into a star, even if it means more murders.
Lubin produces a sumptuous version of the classic, centred around the Susanna Foster, whom the entire male cast seems infatuated with!
