The scrappy, uneducated Molly Tobin claws her way out of poverty in Leadville, Colorado, marries the miner Johnny Brown, and strikes it rich. Desperate for social acceptance in Denver high society, Molly drags Johnny to Europe to acquire polish, nearly losing her marriage in the process. Her true character shines when she survives the sinking of the Titanic, rallying passengers in a lifeboat and earning the nickname 'Unsinkable.'
