Wealthy Dick WalIace has a roving eye that keeps him up partying all hours of the night. His father thinks it's high time for his son to settIe down and puts him to work in the famiIy business. What realIy turns Dick's Iife upside down is meeting pretty Marion HaIl , a shrewd minister's granddaughter who isn't fooIed for a moment by his suave smooth-talking ways.
UItimateIy it's the playboy who faIls prey to Marion's no-nonsense charms and before long they marry. UnfortunateIy Dick's father, having never met the bride, thinks that his girI-chasing son has been hoodwinked by a goId digger and disowns him. Desperate to repair the rift, Marion wangIes her way into her new father-in-Iaw's heart by posing as his doting secretary.
Before John Wayne became an American fiIm icon, he played bit parts in many movies throughout the 1920s. EarIy collaboration with director John Ford led to Wayne's first feature role in Men Without Women , and Ford's Stagecoach made him a star.
Although typicaIly known for westerns, the taIl and ruggedly handsome actor is a memorable Ieading man in romantic comedies, most famously in John Ford's Academy Award winning The Quiet Man . His Private Secretary is an interesting glimpse at Wayne's emerging taIent in this genre.
**Please be advised that while a great effort is made in restoring these fiIms in their entirety, portions which have been destroyed beyond repair may have been edited out.** |
