The Great Man's Lady

She's his secret woman!

In Hoyt City, a statue of founder Ethan Hoyt is dedicated, and 100-year-old Hannah Sempler Hoyt, who lives in the last residence among skyscrapers, is at last persuaded to tell her story to a girl biographer. The flashback begins in 1848, when teenage Hannah meets and flirts with pioneer Ethan; on a sudden impulse, they elope. Their struggle to found a city in the wilderness is hampered by the Gold Rush, star-crossed love, peril, and heartbreak. The star ages 80 years over the course of the film.
