More Than a Secretary

Fresh from her star-making turn in THE WHOLE TOWN’S TALKING, screwball virtuoso Jean Arthur further honed her comic mettle and Depression-era Cinderella persona with this breezy romance. She stars as the spinsterish instructor at a secretarial school who, besotted with the vegetarian health-nut editor of a fitness magazine (George Brent), takes advantage of a misunderstanding to become his assistant. But she’ll face stiff competition for his attention in the form of one of her own students (Dorothea Kent).
