Storyline
Plot Summary |
Ginger Rogers, an overworked New York office girl, seeks two weeks of rest and relaxation at a camp in the Catskills, but finds nothing but crowds and noise. She tries her best to fit in and, after an initial dislike, falls for college educated Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., a waiter at the camp. Ginger becomes suspicious of his motives, however, and he becomes alarmed when she spends an innocent night in the cabin of a rival suitor. But all ends happily as their love proves true enough and trust triumphs over suspicions. Written by Jim Corrigan |
