Fifth Avenue Girl
Manufacturing executive Alfred Borden (Walter Connolly) walks through his luxurious Manhattan home, singing "Happy Birthday" to himself. His family - from inattentive wife (Verree Teasdale) to insouciant son (Tim Holt) to a giddy daughter (Kathryn Adams) drawn to the family's Marxist-leaning chauffer - all ignore the day. Then, Alfred brings home a jobless, level-headed working girl (Ginger Rogers) he meets in Central Park, provides her lodging and the Bordens fall under the influence of this savvy Fifth Avenue Girl. Director Gregory La Cava (My Man Godfrey, Stage Door) amiably skewers the rich again with this witty, star-filled romp that makes Fifth Avenue the place for classic screwball fun.
