~Plot Synopsis~
Lew Cody and Carmel Myers, previously co-starred in MGM's The Gay Deceiver, were reteamed by
popular demand in The Demi-Bride. Actually, Cody and Myers appear in support of Norma Shearer, cast
as Criquette, the stepdaughter of randy Parisienne Madame Girard (Myers). Trouble begins when Mme.
Girard steps out on her husband (Lionel Belmore), Criquette's father, to fool around with rakish
Phillippe Levaux (Cody). When Monsieur Girard finds out, Criquette saves her stepmother from scandal
by tricking Levaux into a hasty marriage. Both Criquette and her stepmom are ultimately disillusioned
by Levaux when he takes up with a third girl!
