Description
In an attempt to maintain her glamorous screen image, a famous film actress (Gail Patrick) is forced by her studio to hide her 14-year-old daughter (Deanna Durbin) in a Swiss boarding school away from the publicity-hungry press. To keep her real identity secret from the other school girls, she invents a fictitious father, claiming he is a globe-trotting big game hunter. Forced to prove his existence, she tries to coax a friendly composer (Herbert Marshall) on vacation in Switzerland to play along with her ruse. Nominated for 4 Academy Awards including Best Cinematography and Best Music Scoring, Durbin's third feature film features a music score including "A Serenade to the Stars, " "Chapel Bells, " and Durbin's rendition of "Ave Maria."
