Dolores del Rio - What Price Glory?




During peacetime, U.S. Marine sergeants Quirt and Flagg are rivals in their romantic pursuits in China and the Philippines. However, when World War I brings them to France in 1917, their rivalry takes a backseat as they team up to deal with the challenges of war and the potential of a forced marriage. Captain Flagg becomes involved with Charmaine, the daughter of an innkeeper, but Quirt's arrival threatens to disrupt their relationship.
