I Found Stella Parish

Kay Francis wrings the last tear from this heart-wrenching drama about love and sacrifice costarring Ian Hunter. When a blackmailer (Barton MacLane) suddenly appears in her dressing room and threatens to expose her dark past, London stage star Stella Parish (Francis) goes into hiding, boarding a ship for the States. Turning up at a New York hotel with her 6-year-old daughter (Sybil Jason) in tow, Stella is befriended by Keith Lockridge (Hunter), a stranger she met on the boat. Hoping to keep the truth from her child, Stella confides her secret to Keith, unaware he's a reporter who's out for the story and about to betray the woman who loves him.
