Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Envoi des Fleurs is based on incidents in the life of French composer Paul Delmet. Played by popular French singing star Tino Rossi, Delmet is depicted as a man all too willing to give up personal happiness in favor of blind ambition. After carrying on a romance by correspondence with beautiful young Suzanne (Micheline Francey), Delmet is on the verge of marrying the girl. Instead, he allows himself to be talked out of leaving France to further his own career, with disastrous results for all concerned. Fans of Tino Rossi would have felt cheated had their idol not sung a few songs in Envoi des Fleurs; Rossi obliges those fans brilliantly.
