A backwoods girl goes from rags to riches in this splashy musical comedy based on a true story. Molly Brown, an orphan raised in the Colorado wilderness, becomes a millionairess when her husband strikes it rich during the silver boom of the 1880s. After rising to the heights of Denver society and nearly going down with the Titanic, Molly emerges as true heroine, singing and dancing all the way. (official distributor synopsis)
