Baxter is a circus high diver having an affair with seedy advance man Cochran, who plays his bestial role with relish. She leaves him and marries fellow diver Bettger, who soon dies in an accident arranged by Cochran. Cochran seduces Baxter again in order to steal her husband's savings. She falls in love with Nader, but soon Cochran turns up again. This time, however, Baxter knows better, and Cochran dies at the hands of half-witted strong man Berber, who has had a crush on Baxter all along. This loose take-off on the silent classic VARIETY is nicely shot on location in Munich. A German version, titled CARNIVAL OF LOVE, was also made using a different cast--Eva Bartok, Curt Jurgens, and Bernhard Wicki. leave a comment
