Spirited young Dolly Payne (Ginger Rogers) re-enters Washington, D.C. society in the early 1800s following her brief and unhappy marriage to John Todd (Horace McNally). Catching the eye of two young politicians, kindhearted James Madison (Burgess Meredith) and hot-tempered Aaron Burr (David Niven), she uses her charms not only to woo her suitors but to influence a presidential election, and also to save precious national treasures from marauding British troops during the War of 1812.
