Lili
You'll fall in love with...
Directed by Charles Walters
Produced by Loew's Incorporated, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
A whimsical, tender musical romance about a lost young woman finding belonging and love through the magic of puppetry and circus life.
Members of a circus troupe "adopt" Lili Daurier when she finds herself stranded in a strange town. The magician who first comes to her rescue already has romantic entanglements and thinks of her as a little girl. Who can she turn to but the puppets, singing to them her troubles, forgetting that there are puppeteers? A crowd gathers around Lili as she sings. The circus has a new act. She now has a job. Will she get her heart's desire?
