가난한 집안에서 태어난 그리그(Edvard Grieg: 토랄브 모스타드 분)는 그의 재능을 알아주지 않는 음악계의 편견으로 힘든 생활을 하고 있었다. 그러나 스웨덴의 여인 테레사(Therese Berg: 크리스티나 스콜린 분)는 물심양면으로 그리그를 도와주려고 노력한다. 그녀의 마음을 알게 된 테레사의 아버지는 그리그를 만나지 않는다는 조건으로 그리그의 연주회 비용을 지원해주기로 한다. 결국 아버지의 강요로 핸슨 대위(Captain Hansen: 칼 리그 분)와의 약혼을 하기로 한 테레사는 대위의 별장으로 떠나게 된다. 테레사의 도움으로 덴마크의 코펜하겐에서 연주회를 연 그리그는 생각만큼 큰 호응은 얻지 못했지만 노르웨이의 국가를 작곡한 리카도 노드랙(Richard Nordraak: 프랭크 포레타 분)과 그의 음악을 노래로 불러준 니나 하그로프(Nina Grieg: 플로렌스 헨더슨 분)를 만나면서 새로운 인생의 계기를 가진다. 세 사람의 우정은 깊어만 갔고, 니나와 그리그는 결혼을 하기에 이른다. 하지만 약속했던 지휘자 후임이 그에게 오지 않게 되자 결혼 생활은 힘들어 지고 결국 피아노 레슨으로 생계를 유지한다. 그러던 어느 날, 우연히 신문에서 레슨 광고를 본 테레사는 그리그에게 편지를 써서 아버지가 돌아가셨으며, 핸슨 대위와의 약혼은 취소됐고 그녀가 받은 유산으로 그의 연주회를 돕겠다고 하는데...

클리프 헨더슨과 그의 가족은 일본으로 가는 길에 SS 클라리돈에 탑승하고 있다. 클라리돈은 고물더미로 향하기 전 마지막 항해를 하는 아주 오래된 배다. 항해 도중에 엔진실에서 폭발이 발생하고 배가 침수되어 가고 있었다. 선장은 그의 배가 침몰할 것이라는 것을 받아들이는데 어려움을 겪는다. 결국 피선 명령이 떨어지고 배가 침몰되어 가는데 헨더슨의 아내 로리가 배가 침수되며 파손되는 과정에서 떨어진 기둥에 깔리고 만다. 엔진실에 있는 남자들이 선체를 떠받치기 위해 필사적으로 일하는 동안 헨더슨은 승무원 중 하나인 행크 로슨의 도움으로 난파선에서 그의 아내를 구출하려고 무진 애를 쓰지만 배는 서서히 잠겨오고 아내는 서서히 이별을 예감한다.

In his last film assignment, portly Walter Connolly fills the title role (in more ways than one) in The Great Victor Herbert. Very little of Herbert's life story is incorporated in the screenplay (a closing title actually apologizes for the film's paucity of cold hard facts); instead, the writers allow the famed composer's works to speak for themselves. In the tradition of one of his own operettas, Herbert spends most of his time patching up the shaky marriage between tenor John Ramsey (Allan Jones) and Louise Hall (Mary Martin). Many of Herbert's most famous compositions are well in evidence, including "Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life", "March of the Toys" and "Kiss Me Again", the latter performed con brio by teenaged coloratura Susanna Foster. Evidently, the producers were able to secure the film rights for the Herbert songs, but not for the stage productions in which they appeared, which may explain such bizarre interpolations as having a song from Naughty Marietta.

Two attractive jewel thieves, one female (Olympe Bradna), one male (Gene Raymond) escape together after their latest escapade and hide out in the home of an aged concert pianist (Lewis Stone). To cover their tracks and keep the old man from turning them in, the thieves pretend to arrange his comeback concert. The artifice becomes reality, the pianist makes a triumphant return, and the thieves reform. This 1938 film is not a remake of 1932's Stolen Heaven, which wove an entirely different story about a suicide pact.

Doctor Smith and his wife, Mary,depart a riverboat and are met by Phil Talbot. Phil informs Dr. Smith that Jessup, the only other white man in the village, has died while the doctor and his wife were off on a two-day holiday.

Meanwhile, Mary Smith has decided to steam-boat down the Congo River to Capetown for an extended holiday. Kuba, King's gun-bearer, asks Smith to write a letter to King, currently residing at a New York City Explorer's Club, and advise him that his partner has died. Talbot sends a letter to his stateside sweetheart, Diane Cameron, and her father, asking them to come to Africa and join him on an ivory-treasure expedition, and replenish their family-fortune lost in the recent stock-market crash. What Mr. Cameron and Diane don't know about Talbot is that his years in Africa have unhinged him...
