Hold Back the Dawn

"Three great stars in the story of love...coldly conceived from a man's need, and a woman's desire!"

Synopsis

Romanian-French gigolo Georges Iscovescu wishes to enter the USA. Stopped in Mexico by the quota system, he decides to marry an American, then desert her and join his old partner Anita, who's done likewise. But after sweeping teacher Emmy Brown off her feet, he finds her so sweet that love and jealousy endanger his plans.
