Synopsis

Breckenridge "Breck" Lee (Richard Barthelmess), jeune homme naïf du Sud, arrive à New York pour exercer le métier de journaliste. Il est engagé par The Press et son premier article concerne l’ouverture d’une nouvelle salle de jeu. Le gangster Louis J. Blanco (Clark Gable) tente de le corrompre pour le faire taire. Lee refuse et publie son article sur le casino qui est peu après fermé par la police. Agressé et frappé par des gangsters, Lee atterrit à l’hôpital. Lors de son retour au travail, il se met en tête d’épouser sa collègue Marcia Collins (Fay Wray), mais son maigre salaire et les factures d’hôpital l’empêchent de donner suite à cette ambition.
