the richest girl in the world

| No Comments

November 6 movie: The Richest Girl in the World. This was a fun screwball comedy with Miriam Hopkins and Joel McCrea. Hopkins plays the title character, Dorothy Hunter (loosely based on Barbara Hutton I believe). The premise is that Hopkins routinely changes places with her secretary to avoid the public eye. McCrea falls for her thinking she's the secretary. Then Hopkins decides to find out which he loves more, her or the money, by encouraging him to woo the heiress. Who is actually the secretary (played by Fay Wray). My description is confusing but it makes perfect sense if you're watching the movie.
