Biopic sobre la estrella de la música Lillian Russell, descubierta en 1890 por Tony Pastor, hasta su retiro en 1912 cuando se casó con el periodista Alexander Moore.
As youths, Carl Pfeiffer and Henry Block came to America from Germany. Pfeiffer became a wholesale shoe dealer, while Block became a banker. In spite of their lines of work, they apparently save most of their energy for their unending arguments with each other. The latest dispute involves the Great War (the film takes place in the days just before America became involved).
