- (December 12, 1932)
-
- The halting little tale which Gay Divorce has to tell relates
- the adventures of a young man who finds himself at an English
- seaside resort pining for the girl he spent a day with a
- fortnight before, after which she vanished. Her sudden
- reappearance is fraught with complications, since she is bent
- on getting a divorce on the strictly technical grounds of
- adultery and soon is under the delusion that her young man is
- the professional co-respondent for whom she is waiting. Dancer
- Astaire, the young man, only once loses his temper with Miss
- Luce, the extremely tempting young woman. With the assistance
- of Mr. Porter, he outlines some of her bad points:
-
- You don't sing enough. You don't dance enough, You don't
- drink the great wines of France enough...
