The opening 15 minutes of this film grabs you and hold your attention as Judy Holliday who plays a yet unknown model named Gladys Glover (Judy Holliday) is trying to make it big in the big apple New York City. Gladys Glover meets for the first time filmmaker Pete Sheppard (Jack Lemmon in his first feature film) in Central Park and unbeknownst to Gladys, Peter the film maker has immediately fallen in love with the barefoot in Central Park model currently unknown, Gladys.
Very quickly though Gladys goes from being just another visitor to New York City to being the most wanted model as her name is plastered on billboards across the city skyline. It is unfortunate that she passed away far too early at the age of 44 in the prime of her life and her acting career.
Pete's funny way of romancing Gladys who is also being wooed by a rich and handsome Evan Adams III (Peter Lawford) makes for an interesting romance/comedy well worth seeing.
I give it a 6 out of 10 IMDB rating
