Genre: drama
Print Quality: B
Carrie (Diana Barrymore), ambitious young actress and her manager Mike
Kilinsky (Andy Devine), travel east from Chicago to Long Island so Carrie
can see the new mansion that her mother Chris (Kay Francis) has just
purchased. Chris is not there when Carrie arrives by Gallagher (Ethel
Griffies), the family major domo, tells Carrie that Chris is in love with the
very rich Steve (John Boles.) Chris confesses to Carrie that she has lied
about her age to Steve, claiming to be 31, and that the photograph of
Carrie is Carrie's (non-existent) Aunt Sadie and Carrie is only twelve.
Carrie insists that her mother keep up the masquerade, and she will pose
as a 12-year-old. Steve arrives and brings with him his friend Jimmy Blake
(Robert Cummings). More than a little confusion follows including Carrie
starting a fight with another "kid" to keep Jimmy from keeping a date with
his fiancee and Mike escorting Chris and the "under-age" Carrie to a
night club, and other incidents that only tend to prove that Steve and
Jimmy aren't the brightest bulbs shining. Diana Barrymore is better as the
12-year-old than she is later playing Joan of Arc in a Detroit theatre,
where the light finally dawns on the perplexed Robert Cummings
character.
