In this entry in Paramount's answer to the Andy Hardy series, Jimmy Lydon wins a 'date' with Hollywood sarong girl, Frances Gifford. When he returns home, where his father, John Litel, is running for Welfare Commissioner, suddenly he has status among his high-school peers; while girlfriend Diana Lynn sulks, Gail Russell (in her screen debut) makes a play for him, ruining Litel's chances. Matters grow worse when Miss Gifford is passed over for Juliet in a movie production, so her boyfriend-manager Bill Goodwin has her come to town so Henry can take her to the prom.
It's another silly and amusing movie out of the nine features and one short in which Lydon played the role. You won't get anything more out of it than you will out of an Andy Hardy picture, except for Paramount's Big-City attitude towards the hicks; one of the teenaged girls wears a bad Veronica Lake peek-a-boo coif.
