A middle aged, wealthy couple retire and go to Europe. It doesn't take long before they are bickering with each other. The wife, played by Ruth Chatterton, has brief flings with a dapper Englishman on the boat, a dashing Frenchman and a young Austrian. The husband, played by Walter Huston, has had enough and goes back to America to see his new grandson. He eventually returns to Europe to get a divorce. He starts a new relationship himself with an Italian, but when his wife's relationship falls apart he must decide between the two. A little too much relationship drama for my tastes, but Huston in particular is good and the ending wraps things up quite nicely.
