프랑스 리비에라 해안, 아들과 함께 해수욕 중이던 딕 다이버(제이슨 로바즈)는 일광욕을 즐기던 여배우 로즈마리(제니퍼 존스)를 만나 인사를 나눈다. 그리고 밤에 벌어진 파티에 그녀를 초대해 또 만나게 된다. 그렇게 두 사람은 점점 가까워진다. 딕 다이버는 대부호의 딸인 니콜 워렌(조안 폰테인)의 정신질환을 치료하다가, 그녀의 매력적인 미모에 사랑을 느껴 결혼했고 지금까지 남편과 의사로서의 역할을 감당해왔다. 그런데 이들 부부 앞에 로즈마리가 나타나면서 관계가 흔들리게 된 것이다. 결국 딕과 로즈마리는 사랑에 빠지게 되고 딕은 유부남으로서 심각한 가치관의 혼란을 겪는다. 이후 건강을 되찾은 니콜은 자신을 사랑하는 토미(세자르 다노바)와 재혼을 하게 되고 딕은 그녀로부터 버림받는다. 원작은 바로 대문호 F 스콧 피츠제럴드가 자전적 경험을 바탕으로 7년 만에 완성한 다. 만큼의 인기를 얻은 작품은 아니지만 그의 영혼과 신념이 담긴 소설이고, 1차 세계대전 이후 기존 가치가 붕괴되는 암울한 역사적 전환기가 겹쳐지면서 정신적으로 표류하는 한 남자의 삶을 들여다본다. 헨리 킹 감독은 피츠제럴드가 임종을 맞기 직전의 순간을 옮긴 전기영화 을 만들었을 정도로 피츠제럴드에게 관심이 많았으며 역시 원작에 충실한 작품이다.

In March 1916, Pathé released a short feature entitled Little Mary Sunshine, starring a four-year-old Marie Osborne. This was one of the first features ever directed by King and it was so successful that Pathé asked the original production company, Balboa, for five more features with the same child wonder. All were produced during the second half of 1916, and only three of them survive today – one being Twin Kiddies, which shows the amazing progress King had made since the first film in the series. Of course, the story is thin, the ending quite abrupt, and the opening sequences rather long. Yet, the direction is much more subtle, alternating between shots of different size, suggesting that King was mastering the art of composition.

Who Pays? was a series of twelve three-reel dramas, released between March and July 1915. Henry King and Ruth Roland starred in each episode, playing different roles each time, with a variety of supporting players who varied from one episode to another. Each episode told a complete and individual story, but they were all inter-related by a uniform theme. Although there were no cliff-hanger endings, each episode did, in fact, end with a challenge to the audience: Who was responsible for the misfortune of the principal characters? The titles of the twelve episodes were: #1: The Price of Fame; #2: The Pursuit of Pleasure; #3: When Justice Sleeps; #4: The Love Liar; #5: Unto Herself Alone; #6: Houses of Glass; #7: Blue Blood and Yellow; #8: Today and Tomorrow; #9: For the Commonwealth; #10: Pomp of Earth; #11: The Fruit of Folly; #12: Toil and Tyranny.
