Romance
US (1930): Drama/Romance
Young Harry (Elliott Nugent) is in love and wants to marry an actress, much to the displeasure of his family. Harry thinks that Bishop Armstrong knows nothing about love, so Armstrong tells him the story of Rita and himself. Rita (Greta Garbo) was an opera star singing in New York who was at a party given by Cornelius (Lewis Stone). Armstrong (Gavin Gordon) was a 28-year-old rector. He fell for Rita when he saw her and after six weeks he wanted to marry her. Naïve as he was, he thought that all of Rita's "relationships" were in the distant past, but Rita lives for the moment and knows that she can never marry Armstrong. (Tony Fontana, IMDb)
