Jud Parker (Larry Parks), a talent agent from New York, is in the hinterlands of Connecticut on business when he meets a beautiful dance teacher named Anastacia (Elizabeth Taylor). Having no interest in a relationship, Jud flees when she tries to introduce him to her mother, Mrs. Macaboy (Josephine Hutchinson). When Anastacia visits New York for a convention, however, she runs into Jud, and they get together. But what Jud considers a casual fling, Anastacia considers something very different.

Audience Member Silly bit of fluff mostly of interest in highlighting Elizabeth's beauty. Larry Parks, not exuding much movie star charisma, is reminiscent of a Mike Todd character which would have meant nothing to audiences at the time but considering Taylor's eventual marriage to him in hindsight it adds a little something to the film. It sorely needs an injection of some kind of pizazz. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Who wouldn't fall for Elizabeth Taylor?? He never stood a chance...
