It Happened One Night (1934)
Miljonairsdochter Ellie trouwt tegen de wil in van haar vader Alexander Andrews. Als hij dit te weten komt, laat Alexander het huwelijk onmiddellijk ongeldig verklaren en plaatst hij de weerspannige Ellie onder huisarrest op zijn jacht in Miami. Ellie weet aan haar bewakers te ontsnappen en ze vlucht per bus naar New York. Tijdens de lange busrit leert Ellie de ontslagen journalist Peter Warne kennen, die in haar een goed verhaal ziet en haar daarom tegen de op haar afgestuurde privé-detectives en politie beschermt. Ze worden verliefd op elkaar, maar er komt een kink in de kabel wanneer Peter Ellie verlaat om zijn verhaal te verkopen aan de krant. Ellie denkt, dat Peter haar schuilplaats aan haar vader zal verraden om de $ 10.000 aan vindersloon op te strijken. Ellie besluit dan maar naar het ouderlijke huis terug te keren. Maar was dat een goed besluit?
