THE BRIDE WALKS OUT

“A Love Pirate-Two Lovers.. and a Pair of Chislers!”

Carolyn Martin is a fashion model who hastily marries her boyfriend, engineer Michael Martin. But part of the marriage arrangement requires that Carolyn quit her $50-per-week modeling job to be a full-time housewife; the couple will instead live on Michael’s $35-per-week job.
