Comment
A dime a dance woman meets and marries a naval diver, on their wedding night he gets called back to the navy and then she returns to the dance hall links up with a man that she does not realise is his best friend. The husband finds out and his friendship is put to the test when he has to rescue the other man after his submarine has an accident. The script is very uneven and the end is sudden unexplained. Although not in that many scenes it is Dolores Del Rio that brings some life to this otherwise slow film. It is basically a remake of the 1928 Frank Capra film Submarine.
