Synopsis by Hal Erickson

The impossibly beautiful Billie Dove coasts through the melodramatic convolutions of Adoration. Billie and Antonio Moreno play husband-and-wife Russian aristocrats who are separated during the Revolution. Upon meeting again, Moreno becomes convinced that Billie has been unfaithful. He walks out and takes to drink, while his wife, ever hopeful that she can patch things up, becomes a professional model to raise money. The caddish Nicholas Soussanin, who accused Billie of adultery in the first place, is at long last exposed as a liar, thereby assuring a happy ending for the displaced couple.
