Madame Du Barry

King Louis XV of France (Reginald Owen) finds himself widowed, lonely and dissolute until his adviser, Richelieu (Osgood Perkins), introduces him to the vivacious commoner Madame Du Barry (Dolores del Río). As various factions vie for political power, Du Barry seduces the king with her charmingly outrageous demands. Though internecine squabbling continues as King Louis' health fades, Du Barry tutors her successor, the beautiful and ambitious Marie Antoinette (Anita Louise).
