Marion Davies stars in this pre-code romantic comedy-drama as Peg, a young woman from a poor Irish fishing village who stands to inherit £2 million. Here’s the catch – she’ll have to spend the next three years in England learning to be a “respectable lady” and she’ll will never be able to see her father again. The resulting culture clash / comedy of manners is made lively with a complex romance (forget the standard love triangle; this is a love hexagon!) and a sprinkling of singing and dancing. Black & White, 87 minutes. Plus short subject.
