• Old Movie

    From August Abolins@1:153/757.21 to Joerg Walther on Sun Oct 27 09:24:00 2024
    Hello Joerg Walther!

    They go to a movie, then go somewhere to dance and go
    drink a milk shake before taking her home.ú

    Another possibility is The Major and the Minor (1942), where Ginger
    Rogers pretends to be a young girl while actually being an adult...

    Just watched it. No milkshake involved in that one.

    I finally found My ROUNDTUIT and checked out Bachelor Mother's and The Major and the Minor movies at IMDb.com neither of those twoshowswere what I recall seeing.

    Ginger Rogers is much older in those movies than the Cast was in the one I'm asking about.
    I don't recall seeing a baby in that movie either.

    I would guess the Star in the show was 14 and the Co-star was 17 or 18.
    The adult man was 35 or so.

    Thanks for all the help.

    What do you mean "the Cast"?

    Nevermind. I got duped when you capitized cast.

    Sounds like you simply need to research all of Ginger Rogers
    films, post 1946 and see read the plots to narrow things down.

    Sorry to throw a loop at You.
    I used Cast to mean all of the actors and actresses in that movie.

    In the two Ginger Rogers flicks I looked at on IMDB she was much older than most of the girls in my movie.
    As I wrote earlier the teen age Co-Star who later was in a 1950 era TV Show was the only person I was familiar with other than the male actor.
    It has been over 60 years since I saw that movie.
    Where the Theater was is now a ramp to a Interstate highway and the boss I worked for has passes away.
    I doubt if his family has his 35MM movie collection now.
    The Shed he had those movie reels in was about 12 feet square, it was a big collection.

    The only film that casts Rogers playing a young girl is
    Bachelor's Mother.

    Maybe you are misremembering the film you seek.

    Thanks again August
    I bookmarked the Finishing School article on Wikipedia after scrolling through it a bit.
    Don't think it is the movie I remember .

    The movie story was in a small town in the USA .

    Appreciate your looking around for me.

    Today I looked on IMDB for the Actress Debbie Reynolds but none of her shows were like the show I saw.
