Cheap...but very good.

Madge is a lovely young lady who comes from a good family. And, she has a loving boyfriend who wants to marry her. However, her life crashes down around her when an evil jerk arrives to blackmail the family. It seems that Madge's parents are not her biological ones...and her birth mother is in prison for murder!!! This cellmate of her mother agrees to be quiet...for a price! But the damage has been done to Madge emotionally. Plus, when the story later makes the newspapers despite the bribe being paid, now her future mother-in-law indicates that she won't approve of the marriage. What is she to do...stay and fight for her man or give up and accept the proposal of a strange reporter?

I liked this movie because the ending was so very sweet. Much of it was because of the wonderful supporting characters on the freighter. Freighter? Well, you'll just have to see the film yourself...and see that B-movies are not necessarily bad movies at all.
