Plot

On a luxury cruise sailing from Europe to New York, Michel Marnet (Charles Boyer), a debonair French playboy and future heir to a colossal American fortune, finds himself captivated by Terry McKay (Irene Dunne), an enchanting American ex-nightclub singer seeking solace in the arms of her doting boyfriend. As the ship cuts through the ocean, a clandestine love affair blossoms between the two, their connection as profound as the sea that carries them. Despite the intoxicating allure of newfound love, the reality of their circumstances looms in the horizon. Michel is promised to a wealthy fiancée, while Terry remains devoted to her supportive beau. Torn between duty and desire, they make a pact: to reunite six months hence, atop the soaring Empire State Building. This rendezvous, set for the first of July, will be the crossroads of their destinies. Their hearts filled with anticipation, they part ways, Michel vowing to establish a life worthy of Terry's love. As the day of reckoning approaches, the question remains: will they choose the comfort of their existing relationships or risk everything for a love that defies convention? The answer lies on the 102nd floor, high above the bustling streets of New York, where love and fate will collide in a poignant climax.
