Anna Lucasta

The estranged family of reformed prostitute Anna Lucasta calls her back home to get her married to an affluent acquaintance out of greed. At the family home in Los Angeles, patriarch Joe Lucasta learns that his friend Otis has sold a farm in Alabama, distributing the proceeds to his children. Joe's daughter Anna is deemed suitable by his wife Theresa and is persuaded to marry Rudolph Slocum, a college graduate who falls for her charm. As Anna tries to rebuild a new life with Rudolph, she reunites with her on-again, off-again lover Danny Johnson, played by Sammy Davis Jr., but their relationship is complicated by Joe's disapproval and the societal pressures they face.
