Cinderella Jones

A law firm is looking for Judy Jones to inherit $10 million. They decide to advertise and every Judy Jones thinks that she has a chance. Judy Jones (Joan Leslie) is a singer with bandleader Tommy Coles (Robert Alda). They have disagreements about marriage and she keeps pushing him off. It turns out that she is the true heiress. The lawyers are convinced by her shrunken head. Only she has to marry someone with high I. Q. to get the money. She also has to go to college, but she applies to an all-men school. Gabriel Popik (S. Z. Sakall) hopes to get a new building out of the admission despite her lack of smarts. Oliver S. Patch (Elisha Cook Jr.) is a nerd at school. Bart Williams (William Prince) is a professor. Camille (Julie Bishop) is a cabbie.

The premise is non-sense but it's fun. I get the marrying part, but I don't understand that she has to go to this school. I know it's the 40's, but there has to be technical schools that accept ladies. Wait! Did she go to that school to find a smart guy to marry? Or maybe the will stipulates that she has to go to a specific school. The writing needs to be better to explain this story. It's a split decision. This is fun, but it makes no sense. Judy is dumb, but even dumb people needs to make sense.
