Dr. Karl Decker is devoted to the poor patients who fill his East Side clinic.until he saves Georgi Gragore from flinging herself into the sea. He falls in love with the well-bred beauty, and takes up an unfulfilling practice among Manhattan's elite to support her in style. Georgi is grateful for his sacrifice and his love - but can't help longing for the man whose betrayal drove her to attempt suicide. (texte officiel du distributeur)

Although I Take This Woman was never considered the best start to Hedy's career or that of her mentor L. B. Mayer, and that there were a lot of problems during the making of it (including a guest appearance by the out-of-control auteur Josef von Sternberg), it's surprising how much more likable the film is as a result. There may not be a more absurd couple in Hollywood heaven than Hedy Lamarr and Spencer Tracy, but you'd be surprised to know that even these two found their chemistry. The story brings the desperate Hedy into his arms without any ulterior motives, because she wanted to commit suicide and he, as a doctor, saved her life. Which, after a short time, inspired her to work alongside him... and there's nothing more natural than letting the new life of these two side by side lead you into the imaginary sunset. The initially unlikely duo eventually reunited in further adventures, in Boom Town (1940) and Tortilla Flat (1942).
