In this classic comedy from the 1920s, we follow the antics of two friends who find themselves caught up in a series of romantic entanglements and misunderstandings in the vibrant city of New York. It all begins when one of them, an intrepid journalist, decides to investigate a mysterious disappearance case that has captured the city's attention. The other, more carefree and a lover of romance, gets swept away by the whirlwind of emotions while trying to help her friend, but her approach is more "romantic" than "investigator."
As they immerse themselves in their investigation, they encounter a variety of eccentric characters, from a silent film heartthrob who seems to have more secrets than expected to a somewhat bumbling detective who complicates matters even further. The comedic situations multiply when misunderstandings, wrong doors, and a couple of hilarious disguises come into play, getting them out of scrapes while landing them in more trouble.
While trying to solve the mystery, they must also deal with their own hearts and the crushes that arise along the way. In an unexpected final twist, the friends discover that the truth is much closer than they realized, and that sometimes love and friendship are the greatest mysteries of all. With a breakneck pace and clever humor, this film is a refreshing portrayal of friendship and love in a time of change.
