~The Latest From Paris~
1928
~348-59: Bert Roach & ?~
~Plot Synopsis~
The Latest from Paris takes place in New York's garment district, where business rivals Blogg
(George Sidney) and Littauer (Tenen Holz) have been carrying on a feud for years. In the tradition of
Romeo and Juliet, heroine Ann Dolan (Norma Shearer) works for Blogg, while her sweetheart Joe
Adams (Ralph Forbes) is employed by Littauer. Without the knowledge of either boss, Ann and Joe
develop their own clothing line, with Ann serving as model. The happy result of all this industrial intrigue
is a merger -- in every sense of the word. It was during filming of The Latest From Paris that Norma
Shearer became the wife of MGM production chief Irving Thalberg.
