Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Set in Paris in the pre-WWI years, Paris Girls stars Suzy Vernon as a French lass with show-business aspirations. Leaving her family behind, Vernon heads to America where she becomes a success on Broadway as dancing star "Captain Peggy." Returning to France, our heroine weds her childhood sweetheart Fernand Fabre. Their future happiness is threatened by Vernon's former stage cohort Esther Kiss, a jealous type who wants the wealthy Fabre all to herself. Things come to a rowdy climax on board a yacht, where Vernon and Kiss square off in a hiss-and-scratch duel.
