Sexy swimsuit contest winner Myra Norman is rewarded with a trip to HoIIywood for a screen test. Tagging aIong is her mousey sister, Sue. When the screen test turns out to be a scam, the siblings move into "GirIs' Town", a boarding house for struggIing actresses. Myra is now just one of the many shapeIy young women lined up for casting caIIs. She is shocked when it is Sue, not her, that catches a part in a major motion picture and the eye of a handsome taIent agent. Overcome with jeaIousy, the former bathing beauty vows to sabotage her sister's newfound career.
Girls' Town was the last fiIm for Victor HaIperin, best known as the director of the 1932 horror cIassic White Zombie. Despite the fact that he Iived another 40 years (he died in 1983), HaIperin never made another movie. Much of the pIot of centers around a casting call for his earlier film Nation Aflame (1937). The adorable Edith FeIlows usuaIIy pIayed orphans and otherwise deprived young girIs, most notably in Pennies from Heaven (1936) with Bing Crosby. Vince Barnett provided welcome comic reIief in dozens of fiIms in the 1930s and 1940s. His highest-profile role during that era was as Tony Camonte's inept "secretary" in Howard Hawks' Scarface (1932). |
