Rich girl Lally Marlett (Norma Shearer) is shocked when her father leaves her mother for Beth Chevers, but things get more complicated when Lally falls for Chevers' son. Their Own Desire is a mildly entertaining melodrama. It isn't as clunky as most early sound films, and the performances are all good.
