Peacock Feathers Synopsis

A luxury-loving daughter of an impoverished upper class family, Mimi Le Brun, falls in love with Jerry Chandler, a poor Yale man with the ambition to be a writer. Jerry proposes, but Mimi turns him down in favor of Andy Fuller, an oil millionaire. When Jerry inherits a ranch from his uncle, he and Mimi decide to be married, anticipating that Jerry's windfall will make them rich. Arriving at his ranch on their honeymoon, they discover, to their shock and disappointment, that the place is neither comfortable nor profitable. Despite her feelings, Mimi stays on, and she and Jerry try to make a go of it. As their first Christmas together approaches, Jerry goes into the hills for a tree. While he is gone, Andy shows up and persuades Mimi to go away with him. As she is leaving, she sees a signal fire on the mountain and, realizing that Jerry is in trouble, rounds up a rescue party. She saves Jerry's life and, overcome with the sudden intensity of her love for him, gladly nurses his hurt leg back to health, anticipating a long and happy life together.
