Life in 1847 Paris is one constant party for women, like Marguerite Gautier (Garbo), who make their living charming wealthy men out of their money. For her love is a cold, calculated profession of the mind—a means to make ends meet rather than a noble endeavor of the heart. She lives on her wit; coupled with her radiant beauty, it creates wealth and a decadent lifestyle. But then the impossible happens: Marguerite meets a man who makes her believe. Armand Duval (Robert Taylor) slips into her private box at the opera one night by mistake, and the hardened vixen is mesmerized by his innocent flirting and genuine interest. She tries to resist, but the promise of a summer in the country proves too tempting. Marguerite begins to imagine a life with her suitor where she will live simply and honestly for the first time. But her past catches up with her, and Armand's father begs her to leave him to spare his career and family name. Marguerite realizes she is not worthy of true love, and drives a knife into her lover's heart by leaving him. But little does anyone suspect that Marguerite is deathly ill, and she doesn't have much time left. Will Armand find out the truth in time to save her from dying alone?
