    Storyline

    Edit
    Noted psychiatrist Dr. Aaron Sylvester has Hollywood star Carol Corliss as a patient. The beautiful blonde has developed such a phobia toward the large crowds of her adoring fans that she goes around disguised as a buck-toothed, horn-rimmed, homely brunette or wears a veil over her face to mask her identity. The doctor prescribes a vacation to a mountain lake cabin as part of her cure and asks young outdoorsman Emory Muir to accompany her and act as therapist. Muir is not impressed by celebrity, especially hers, and seems more interested in sport fishing and photography. Even when Carol metamorphosizes from her ugly duckling persona back to Hollywood princess, he remains unimpressed. To complicate matters, Carol's frequent movie co-star, ham actor Jay Holmes, has arrived on the scene to profess his love to her. —duke1029@aol.com

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Most critics agree that it is in this film that Ginger Rogers achieved solo movie stardom. Her studio, RKO, tried to insure this by not releasing any publicity stills of her with her buck-toothed, bespectacled, brunette persona.
    • Goofs
      When Emory arrives at the shotgun wedding ceremony, he has a white handkerchief in his right backside pocket. The handkerchief then disappears, reappears, disappears and reappears again when the scene goes through the various edits.

      Judge Thaddeus Parks: How are all your loonies, Aaron?

      Dr. Aaron Sylvester: [Dryly] Oh, they're still crazy, or at least I hope so.

    A Hilarious escape for both Ginger and the viewer !
    The film is just a great escape for the viewer. I love watching Ginger act the part of a spoiled rich movie star-considering she seemed to be very down to earth in her every day life. The costume was so un-movie star like but Ginger shows that she is just more than a pretty face by pulling off that stunt ! She has just a divine comedic touch and this early film of hers illustrates that.

    Brent is so-so...he wasn't bad he wasn't fantastic either.

    Ginger's co-star and supposed love interest in the film is funny and brings some more hijinks to her vacation.

    There is a scene where he is to be involved in an altercation with Brent's character--it's priceless.

    I have three fave moments in this film. The first is when Ginger wakes up in the cottage the morning after she gets there ... she sees a bird and decides to take a swim . Something about that scene is so relaxing and carefree.

    The second is when she is doing her solo dance scene towards the end of the film. You finally get to see this woman get the limelight doing her own routine instead of sharing it with Astaire ( who was wonderful by the way ).

    I can't leave out the third scene which has her dancing to a song on the radio in the cottage living room.

    This is a really nice early Ginger movie which all Ginger fans should watch. It is quite a treat.

    Thanks Ginger xoxo
