The film follows Lucille Lingard, who is torn between her life in Iowa and her romantic escapades in Paris. After falling for the charming Ronald Derbyshire, she faces the dilemma of wanting a divorce from her husband, Charles. However, upon returning home, Lucille discovers unexpected complications when Ronald and her husband become friends. This twist leads Lucille to reconsider her feelings for her family life.

As Husbands Go features an ensemble cast that includes Warner Baxter and Helen Vinson, bringing the story's emotional stakes to life. The film's setting in Paris adds a romantic allure, making it an interesting piece for collectors who appreciate classic cinema with a focus on relationships. Its comedic elements provide a light touch, characteristic of the early 1930s romantic comedies that appealed to audiences during that era.

As Husbands Go has had a somewhat limited release history, making original prints a bit harder to come by. Most collectors seek it out for its unique mix of comedy and romance from the early '30s, a period that often gets overshadowed by later decades. Interest in this film seems to be growing, particularly among those who appreciate lesser-known gems from the pre-Code era of Hollywood, and it’s often discussed in collector circles for its nostalgic value and charming performances.
