Dream Girl

1955 · 90 min · Comedy

Adaptation of the stage play of the same name by Elmer Rice, about a frequently daydreaming woman and her love life. Georgina Allerton, a young bookstore cashier and aspiring novelist, awakens one morning to prepare for work, lamenting that she is in love with her brother-in-law Jim. While taking a shower she imagines herself to be the guest of a radio psychiatry show, talking about her problems; Jim married her sister Miriam two years ago, and she has never told him about her feelings towards him. She has just started dating another man, George Hand, who has ardently pursued her despite being married himself, and she has tried to forget about Jim.
