Plot

In the glittering world of aristocracy and arts, Don Bellows, a noble and esteemed architect, finds himself captivated by the intoxicating allure of Joyce Heath. Once a shining star of the stage, Joyce's career had been prematurely dimmed by accusations of being a jinx. Now, she’s a penniless drunk, a shadow of her former self. Don, smitten by the fallen actress who had once changed his life, stumbles upon her in a bar while accompanied by his fiancée Gail Armitage and a friend. Seeing Joyce so broken and desolated, he makes an impulsive decision to bring her to his idyllic countryside home, offering her a sanctuary for rehabilitation. Within the peaceful confines of his home, Don finds himself falling deeper into the abyss of his feelings for Joyce, leading to the dissolution of his engagement with Gail. His affection for Joyce transcends mere infatuation, prompting him to plan a comeback for the actress: a play produced solely for her. He dreams of a future where he is wed to Joyce, a dream that starts taking shape after the opening night of the play. However, each person has a past, and Joyce's is a shrouded secret, a haunting specter that has followed her into her present. Unbeknownst to Don, she is married to Gordon, a fact that ignites a series of tragic events. Joyce's desperation for a divorce leads to a catastrophic accident, forever binding Gordon to a wheelchair. Bearing the weight of guilt and regret, Joyce implores Don to return to Gail. Meanwhile, she bravely steps into the limelight once more for her play's opening night and seeks Gordon's forgiveness. 'Dangerous' is a tale of love and redemption, a poignant exploration of the human quest for forgiveness and second chances, set amidst the spectacular backdrop of stage and stardom.
