Storyline
Sisters Jane and Penny are arrested for hitchhiking on their way to Los Angeles when they stop for a quick skinny-dip in a rural town. Local agricultural magnate Tropp is a sponsor for a local prison work program and the women are put in the cotton fields to work off their sentence. Tropp marries the middle-aged widowed judge in order to ensure a stable supply of cheap labor to undercut his competition. The prisoners suffer ill treatment, but the judge's son has signed on as a hired hand and begins to figure out the scam as he falls in love with Jane, and Penny dreams of making it big in showbiz.

It seemed like it was at this time that movies started to become really dated. It was unbelievably easy to figure out what decade this came out. There's tons of old slang that doesn't hold up well. I admit to being unfamiliar with the laws at this time. Is it really illegal to hitchhike? Well, that was decades ago. This film features two women being sent to become cotton pickers. Like literal cotton pickers. I have heard of that phrase (especially at this time) but never really saw it being used literally.
I guess that's a plus for the film. We get lots of scenes of random singing. It does kind of have some relevance later in the film. I still get the feeling that this thing is needlessly padded. For a mundane film, it had a pretty ridiculous plot. It also moved way too slow. The sounds and music became pretty annoying quickly. I didn't understand what was going on later in the film, because I didn't care enough to pay much attention. *1/2
