In New Orleans in 1850, Julie Marsden, a strong-willed Southern belle, is
engaged to marry Preston Dillard, a prominent New Orleans banker with an equally
strong mind. Their struggle for supremacy in the relationship comes to a head
the night of a traditional ball to which unmarried women are expected to wear
white, but Julie defiantly insists on wearing red. Pres is shocked, but ultimately
agrees to escort her. At the ball, Julie begins to regret her decision, but
Pres forces her to dance, and afterward ends their engagement. In disbelief,
Julie waits for Pres to apologize, but he stands his ground, leaving for the
North on business.
